So physicalists do not believe in any immaterial object above and beyond the body that's part of a person.
所以物理主义者不相信,任何超越肉体的非物质实体的存在
You need that object to be a substance, to be something.
这个物体得是某种物质,某种实体。
According to the dualist, the mind is this immaterial substance and we could call it by different names.
根据二元论,心灵是非物质的实体,我们可以用不同的名字称呼它
The dualist position is that the mind is a soul and the soul is an immaterial object.
二元论认为心灵就是灵魂,而灵魂是一种非物质实体
Doesn't it follow that a soul, an immaterial entity, can't be destroyed by a material, physical process?
而灵魂这种,无形的实体,是否会遵循这个规律被物质,也就是物理过程摧毁呢
The person is a body that can do things that most other material objects can't do.
人这个肉体可以做,很多其他物质实体不能做的事
People are just material objects, the sorts of things biologists poke and prod and study.
人只是个物质实体,一个生物学可以钻研的东西
A person is just a body. Of course, it's a very fancy material object.
人当然是肉体,一个非常不错的物质实体
Initially, last time, we considered a set of or a subset of arguments that basically said, "Look, there's got to be more to us than just material objects.
起初,上节课上,我们探讨了一类或者说是,一小类论证,这些论证的基本观点是,我们肯定不仅仅是些物质实体
Are there things that need to be explained that we could explain if we posited the existence of a soul, an immaterial object, above and beyond the body?
有没有这样的事物,只有假定灵魂,这种凌驾于肉体之上的,非物质实体存在,才能对其进行解释
If the very idea of soul that we're working with here under the dualist picture is the soul as an immaterial substance, it's not made of ordinary atomic matter.
如果关于我们正在讨论的,观点是建立在二元论的基础上,即灵魂是非物质实体,它并非由一般的原子物质组成
Is there a good reason to add the soul, something immaterial?"
有没有很好的理由再加上,灵魂之类的非物质实体
A person is just a certain kind of material object.
人只不过是一种物质实体
That approach pretty clearly isn't going to work for souls, because a soul--and again, we've got in mind this metaphysical view, according to which it's something immaterial-- isn't something we see.
但这种方法显然不能用来证明灵魂的存在,因为灵魂,我再一次说明,从这种形而上学的角度来看,灵魂是非物质实体,我们看不到它
