307. And here the strange thing is that
when I am quite certain of how the words are used, have no doubt about it, I
can still give no grounds for my way of going on. If I tried I could give a
thousand, but none as certain as the very thing they were supposed to be
grounds for.
here we have the argument –
that certainty is groundless
the next step is to see –
that the claim of certainty –
only has rhetorical function
which effectively means –
it is and exercise in deception –
if not delusion
