17. Mind and Body / E. Mind as Physical / 3. Eliminativism
If we are going to eliminate folk psychology, we must also eliminate folk logic [Putnam]
     Full Idea: Why don't the eliminationists speak of "folk logic" as well as "folk psychology"?
     From: Hilary Putnam (Representation and Reality [1988], §4 p.60)
     A reaction: I think Putnam considers that if you can prove 'truth' to be a necessary feature of mental life, that connects mind and world, but marking a sentence as 'T' doesn't make any connections.
