	'''Eliminative materialism''' is a [[materialist]] position in ~~The~~ [[philosophy of mind]]. It is ~~The~~ idea that ~~The~~ majority of ~~The~~ mental states in folk psychology do not exist. Some supporters of eliminativism argue that no coherent neural basis will be found for many everyday psychological concepts such as belief or desire, since they are poorly defined.
