Commentary on Nixon's Three Papers

Marty Monteiro

Abstract


On the First Paper, a relevant point not mentioned by Nixon is the existence of ‘consciousness without experience’. This is the domain of the emergence of the primary mind or ‘cognition’. On the Second Paper, I agree with Greg Nixon that Being, Awareness is unexplainable, but this does not imply that it is impossible to 'describe' mind--->matter and matter---> transformation in a 'relatively' closed inter-individual (interobjects-intersubjects) loop. On the Third Paper, I agree with Nixon that God in absolute sense is hidden and objectively unknown but definitely not beyond existence. This touches also the issue of the compatibility of evolutionism-creationism and has to do with the ‘mental chemistry’ of disconnection-connection.
