18. Thought / C. Content / 1. Content
All thought represents either properties or indexicals [Bonjour]
     Full Idea: I assume that the contents of thought can be accounted for by appeal to just two general sorts of ingredient - properties (including relations) and indexicals.
     From: Laurence Bonjour (In Defence of Pure Reason [1998], §6.7)
     A reaction: I don't accept that relations are a type of properties. Since he does not include objects or substances, I take it that he considers objects to be bundles of properties.
