12/25/2022 0 Comments Coherence theory of truthBertrand Russell theorized that a statement, to be true, must have a structural isomorphism with the state of affairs in the world that makes it true. Correspondence theories claim that true beliefs and true statements correspond to the actual state of affairs. The spectacular successes over four centuries of science based on methodological naturalism cannot be denied. If one believes that natural laws and theories based on them will not suffice to solve the problems attacked by scientists – that supernatural and thus nonscientific principles must be invoked from time to time – then one cannot have the confidence in scientific methodology that is a prerequisite to doing science. Methodological naturalism is not a “doctrine” but an essential aspect of the methodology of science, the study of the natural universe. There is a sense in which that which is truth depends on the world it can be demonstrated in, similar to the scientific methods presupposition of methodological naturalism. Guest post: Atheism’s Conclusion by Rational Thinking” by Marquis AmonĪ common thinking states that the truth or falsity of a statement is determined only by how it relates to the world and whether it accurately describes (i.e., corresponds with) that world. So as you address, all thinking starts with pre logic, I was using corresponding concepts to say that subjective logic is part of the pragmatic and internal truth coherence, I did not mean to say it was exclusive. In short, universal ethics and humanism aren’t subjective, they are superior because their benefits clearly support humanity in reality. Of course they shouldn’t be forced to accept it, but we are all humans on this planet and naturally interact with each other…It is part of life. That they are equal humans that should be offered modern technology. It was argued that they are not spectacles to be observed for uniqueness. Next another example touched upon by Dawkins and Dennett, in particular, is a cultural lifestyle of tribes living in an antiquated lifestyle. Under no circumstance should anyone be denied it, it is a human right and doing otherwise is inhumane. I have no problem with sane adults refusing it but everyone should have the option, regardless of belief. As a humanist to deny any human medical treatment is unethical, period. Unfortunately in our country even in modern times children have been denied medical care based on religious belief and died. Therefore people are dying for no real reason other than a very bad idea that is demonstrably wrong. There are no gods and killing people outside of defense is wrong, period. One of the examples in the conversation was that it is acceptable to sacrifice people to gods, because people believe it is okay. Quite simply the objective stance says cultural lifestyle is acceptable so long as it does not harm to people. The person claimed that cultural lifestyle is equal to humanism. You were speaking with someone who believed that cultural lifestyle should be put before humanism. It still may contain thinking errors but it works in the direction of consciously trying to solve them. Objective logic contains the pragmatic and internal aspects of thinking but also it works out the external, reality-based constituents of the issues. It’s not until the coherence theory of truth or external evidence things does it become entirely objective in the correspondence theory of truth though it too all still carries the lower presuppositions required to reach this more elevated truth claim. Then from this pragmatic outset of Subjective logic, it gets more objective as well as still having some subjectiveness. Subjective logic is applied in reasoning such as that found in the pragmatic truth theory stage where we add ethics of belief standards to add critical thinking and or the internal truth theory stage of truth coherence, and when it gets to the coherence theory of truth, as well as the presuppositions required to reach all higher truths even if never stated as such it is the steps needed to follow the thinking to its first start in the awakened and thinking mind and why above all reason is my only master. I do Truth Navigation: Techniques for Discussions or Debates, adressing both inquiry questions as well as strategic facts in a tag team of debate and motivational teaching. ontology, epistemology, and axiology three philosophies that I use methodologically) both builds and destroys: it aids in building accuracy towards truth and destroy bad claims that are untrue. I value good Belief-Etiquette ( Addressing The Ethics of Belief ) : reasoned belief-acquisitions, good belief-maintenance, and honest belief relinquishment. Subjective logic, to me, is how all thinking starts as to start you don’t know and the rest is investigation, hypothesis, beliefs, new info and a reassessment of thinking then updated thinking to the greater accuracy.
