324. Thus we should not call anyone
reasonable who believed something in despite of scientific evidence.
if I believe something in spite of
scientific evidence –
then presumably –
I come at the matter with a non-scientific
point of view –
who is to say what perspective is to be
used?
who or what is the authority here?
there is no authority – there is only
assertion –
someone’s assertion –
and perhaps their pretence
a reasonable person is open –
to different understandings –
different kinds of knowing
