This phrasing takes us in a Platonic direction. My honest take is that there are no concepts, only words.

-
But we do form concepts of certain things, no? Would it not be impossible to think were it not for these concepts?
-
thinking we do with words. Words relate to things, in a tortured way.
-
Nah I don't think with words, but with concepts, aspects of which can be formed into propositions
-
I guess it depends what we say 'thinking' is.

Using the mental faculty
-
Not sure what you mean by 'mental faculty'. Is this the same thing as the mind?

isn't corporal a concept itself? and a quite weird one if you trust modern physics
-
Well I would say 'corporeal' denotes a certain quality or condition, and of course we can form a concept of this quality, and I really don't have much trust in modern physics
-
the modern Interpretation of a object like a brick wall is that you could walk thru it if it were not for the magnetic fields. it is mostly empty space between the atoms of a body I don't know the ratio by heard but it is big (1/2)
-
What do you mean by "empty space"? How could space be empty? If it were empty, why would there still be space?
-
becase atoms are neets and hate other atoms (for the most part) the atom cores are also a tiny part of the atom itself the rest is potentially occupied by elections (who are neets and hate other elections)
-
What do you mean by atom? An undividable particle?
-
no I mean the proton (neutron) election thingy most people mean today you can divide them (not sure about elections tbh) and than it gets even weirder
-
at the end I am not really sure what corporal is after all what we perceive at a macro level seems to be the effect of electio magnetic fields. so you are not really touching atoms of the wall but the atoms resist being come to close and we call that corporal
