Quote:Without 'a priori' knowledge radical empiricism has nothing with which to cement experiences into knowledge.Should it?

Some things once considered "a priori" are know known to be completely in error.
Quote:You have not shown, by either logic or evidence, the falsity of my statement "the idea of a universe that is inherently orderly is a necessary axiom for rational thought."Should I have to? It's your baby, do work. I simply mentioned that the notion of an inherently orderly universe is not a presupposition. Not for me anyway, is it presupposition for you? How so?
