    Part of a larger discussion

    Supports→Temporalism cannot adequately account for the retention of propositional attitudes over time.

    The apparent counterintuitive result described in Objection 1 relies on conflating the time of belief formation with the time of belief evaluation, a conflation temporalism is not committed to making.

    Key Terms

    Belief evaluation(contrasted with belief formation)
    The act of assessing or judging whether a belief is true, justified, or reasonable at some point in time.
    Belief formation(as the main topic of the statement)
    The process of how people come to actually believe something, rather than just pretending to believe it.
    Conflating
    Conflating means mixing together or treating two different things as if they were the same thing, when they're actually distinct. It's a logical error where someone blurs important differences between concepts, ideas, or situations to make an argument seem stronger than it is. For example, conflating "being critical of a policy" with "being disloyal to your country" wrongly equates two separate things.
    Counterintuitive(describes the strange result that the statement's logic produces)
    A conclusion that seems wrong or goes against what we'd normally expect, even if it might be logically correct.
