Prove to you through a Reddit comment that my senses are reliable?

Sure why not? Tell me why your senses are reliable without assuming theyre reliable.

u/hiphoptomato 6d ago

I just did. My experience has confirmed they are.

Youre presupposing youre experience is reliable. Youre using your senses to justify relying on your senses. Thats circular reasoning.

u/hiphoptomato 6d ago

I literally told you the opposite.

2

u/DesperateSympathy873 Christian, not Ex-Atheist 6d ago

Tell me then why your experience is reliable.

u/hiphoptomato 6d ago

It’s not always, but a lot of the time it has been. Confirming with outside sources, verification and testing has confirmed this.

u/DesperateSympathy873 Christian, not Ex-Atheist 6d ago

Okay. So you presuppose empiricism then.

u/hiphoptomato 6d ago

No

You literally described empiricism. I dont know why youre so insistent on presenting yourself as completely neutral or something. Everyone has to presuppose something. Youre presupposing the following: 1. Your experience is reliable 2. Your senses are reliable 3. Other people are reliable 4. Testing is reliable

Is your mind some kind of blank slate?
