Can someone explain to me in layman’s terms (if possible) the definitions of these two terms and how they’re related to each other? I’d like follow this discussion and I’ve been trying to do research, but I’m not like, totally smert like you guys, and it’s going over my head. 😭. Thanks in advance for any scraps so generously thrown my way! 😁
ontological arguments are based in metaphysical or nature of a subject/being, which epistemic speaks to the validation of the subject.
In short it is a douche bag way of saying just because you can describe how something works does mean it is valid/works that way.
