17. Mind and Body / E. Mind as Physical / 7. Anti-Physicalism / b. Multiple realisability

3981	Most psychological properties seem to be multiply realisable [Fodor]
	Full Idea: These days most philosophers of mind suppose that most psychological properties are multiply realisable.
	From: Jerry A. Fodor (Jerry A. Fodor on himself [1994], p.298)
	A reaction: This is just speculation. The physical part may seem very different, but turn out to be identical in the ways that matter (like a knife made of two different metals).
