Like Wayne Riggs, I don’t think testimony always amounts to knowledge.  (I have in mind here Lackey’s “Easy Knowledge” objection to credit theories of knowledge.)  Often it does, when background evidence supports it well enough, when the testimony is part of a greater narrative which makes the hypothesis that they are telling the truth very [...]

Brit Brogaard has very usefully posted the programme for the 2010 Central States Philosophical Association meeting here. As you can see, there is lots of epistemology taking place (from a quick glance, there are talks by John Turri, Pete Murphy, Ted Poston, Bruce Russell and Jim Pryor, amongst others).

  • cleese : any one wishes to discover some wisdom in (in brief) and some answers in islam ?
  • JK713 : Fantastic quote
  • willowz : "Logic takes care of itself; all we have to do is to look and see how it does it."-Wittgenstein from the Tractatus
  • willowz : If you prove by logic that logic is not logical then I hand it to you, that you can disprove Gödel's incompleteness theorem. xD
  • Msafwan : I think that imply that everything can be proven with mathematics, including the mathematic itself. I think that doesn't make sense. You can't prove "1" with other number right?
  • Sam26 : What would be the implications of disproving Godel's Incompleteness Theorem?
  • Cado : Five day moment of silence. I figured I would have had to learn how to write and express my thoughts through typing before I was missed on here. It seems my ignorance is worthy after all ;)
  • Msafwan : No silence for you. No silence death without an honor! Kaplah!! (waaargh!)
  • JK713 : Moment of silence anyone?
  • Cado : Now I remember why I left school. There is no heart here. It was fun, wake up, and sorry for any negative emotions you might have felt. Peace!
  • JK713 : philosophy: Investigation of the nature, causes, or principles of reality, knowledge, or values, based on logical reasoning rather than empirical methods
  • Cado : Are there any Stoics here? Are there any who believe in altruism in ethics? Are there any at all who are truly virtuous? It seems so far that everyone talks, and through there words it becomes known that they do not actualy DO philosophy unless they believe doing philosophy is simply thinking logicaly and talking. But what of true philosophical action, what we now call applied philosophy?
  • JK713 : This site is always cyclical in nature. Now that I'm back things will pick up again.
  • funkgunk : 'I think this site has died - at least for the time-being' would seem so
