mind-objections-and-replies

separate

Use when stress-testing a Mind argument by raising the strongest objections and constructing replies. At a top analytic-philosophy journal, anticipating and answering the best objection is much of the contribution — referees are expert and will supply the objection if you do not. Builds the dialectic; it does not invent positions to knock down.

When to use

• stress-testing a Mind argument
• raising the strongest objections
• constructing replies to objections
• writing the Objections section
• weaving replies through the paper
• referee-simulation pass

When not to use

• inventing positions to knock down
