Because it has to opposed in some way? My view of a hero is actually more like batman than robinhood. I think true heroes knowingly and purposefully c...
The witness admitted he was shot in self defence. That is basically the same as saying (in that instance) he wasn’t guilty. I didn’t mean to imply he ...
I never said it did. Why you focused on that puzzles me given that I gave a blow by blow account of what I learnt from watching the trial directly aft...
It is pretty hard not to reply when you are claiming a quote you wrote were my words. What actually said was this: In reference to the specific defini...
I don’t see anything here other than some doctrine I don’t care about and some terms used that lack definitions. Ignorance meaning what and knowledge ...
You were talking about ‘knowledge’ and ‘luck’ right in terms of the Gettier problem? That is what I was talking about. ‘Entropy’ is ‘systematic’? I do...
You provided evidence that was summed up by questions that were not clear with an explanation that amounted to ‘Yes’ for each answer. I did my best to...
@"Miller" Ask yourself if you wish to provoke people or to present a reasonable point in a calm manner. The main problem is people don’t want to talk ...
Perhaps we can go through these one at a time? Starting with number 1 I don’t think ‘Yes’ is sufficient. How do you know he defended himself rather th...
Maybe, maybe not. I’m sure given the circumstances the police were extremely mindful and trying to avoid such a thing though so I wouldn’t just assume...
If the police were there it would have been different. They weren’t. That was one failing but they were literally pushed out. The incident that sparke...
If you interested/concerned then why not watch the trial and put your mind at rest rather than listening to stories? It looked crazy to me so I watche...
Try watching large portions of the actual trial. He was clearly not guilty and the guy he shot (who didn’t die) also said so. Running away from people...
Are we? If we're going to talk about knowledge then I think mentioning epistemology makes sense, and given my view of its connection to ontology that ...
If I start throwing out terms like enantidromia (which funnily enough has a red squiggly line under it!) I think that is less tangible than what I may...
You said JTB was the standard yet you talk about Gettier (which shows problems with JTB. My 'position' is not crystallised nor do I wish it to be. I c...
To accuse someone (or groups) of virtue signaling must make said person a virtue signaler. I am aware that this is virtue signaling too. I don't have ...
As for epistemology and ontology it is just a convenient distinction not an actual one. We have to use words and define knowledge in order to talk abo...
Like I tried to outline, what we 'know' is not knowledge. We ken the world but we don't know it. We know only via abstraction but we don't 'ken' abstr...
I never talked about a theory. It should be clear enough to you and everyone else that 'evidence' is not a rigidly defined thing. Evidence is often us...
A man is wrongly accused at work of stealing. He is sacked and goes home early in an angry state. He walks into his house to find his wife having sex ...
I was insisting that JTB must leave out the specifics to work flawlessly (see below) because it is only fully effective in an abstract realm. I did me...
Stick to the old ways then. It is an abstract theory set in an abstract realm that has some parallels to human life. the problem is if you apply it to...
Doesn't really matter. At the end of the day a 'belief' will overrule anything claimed by others to be 'known'. Nature will do as nature does regardle...
I don't much care for the JTB view. I'd rather not pretend my beliefs are anything but beliefs. Knowledge is for set discernable limits only (ie. abst...
Beliefs don't require justifications because we've no idea what justification for any given myriad of beliefs there is. Justification is really just a...
I think you missed something. He was saying that Stupid people are unpredictable whereas everyone else you can figure out roughly what their motivatio...
I assume you're buddhist too and don't like it when people say things that are true? Seems strange though. You can wiki it if you want. Buddhism is th...
Respect? If I had to use that word I would say actively don't respect ANY philosopher! Ideas are not for respecting though. They are for slapping sens...
Wittgenstein defined a language as that which cannot be Private. It is really an argument more of a definition of 'language' put in place and made cle...
