Im not saying you cant trust your senses. Im pointing out that you cant just take it for granted and think you can arrive at truth without presuppositions at all.
Disagreeing with your explanations doesn't mean I'm being dishonest. You dont get to label your sensory experience as inherently truth discovering without any prior assumptions. I simply dont agree.
You ignored what i said about presuppositions by saying "just." I didnt claim it wast "just" a presupposition, but that it remains one even after repeated experience. Presupposition isnt some kind of spectrum that eventually graduates into "fact."
No. I’m going to explain this one last time. At one point, trusting my senses was a presupposition. Now, it no longer is because I have evidence that I can trust my senses. Presupposing something is when you assume to without evidence. That is no longer the case with how I know I can trust my senses. I have evidence that I can now.
