What, if anything, is bad about pain?
It hurts.
Ugh, you sound like G.E. Moore.
What’s wrong with that? And besides, Wittgenstein said it better. How could someone even doubt one has a hand? (cf anosognosia)
Wittgenstein was more sensible and eloquent, yes (though still, I think, wrong). Moore just sounds like a two-year-old. They’re both trying to sidestep the question (which is what I was implicitly accusing Richard of doing).
I disagree. I completely endorse your comparison to Moore, and think RichardKennaway has hit the nail on the head.
