one of my arguments is that you've admitted that 'ontological dualism'
means 'substance dualism'.
just a few days ago, you said "Since you equated Cartesian dualism with
'substance dualism' and we had agreed that by 'ontological dualism' I
meant the same thing as what you meant by 'substance dualism', Dennett's
claim that it took a Cartesian dualist to read the CRA as Searle read it
amounted to the assertion that 'ontological dualism' (or 'substance
dualism') lay at the heart of the CRA."
