(May 10, 2022 at 10:30 pm)Neo-Scholastic Wrote: Well, I do not take radical skeptism very seriously because its too stubborn to admit its own internal inconsistencey while demanding it of others. IMHO the principle of non-contradiction is at least one absolute certain fact. And I have recently been persuaded that the principle of sufficient reason also counts as as absolute.

An absolute? As an atheist, I make no such claims, other than that I exist at least mentally.
