do qualia exist? Thomas Nagel's rely is yes, Daniel Dennett's is no. Nagel explains that qualia (that is, phenomenological qualities of experience) definitely exist, even if their existence can't be verified via traditional objective science. in other words, even if qualia can not be provien, this in itself does not nullify the existence of such qualia. Dennett's entire argument hinges on the unverifiability of qualia, therefore if it can be successfully argued that verification is not essential to existence Dennett's argument fails. It is this piont of Dennett's argument that will be given a closer look and shown to be erroneous...
