[lit-ideas] Re: Understanding Why Newton Contributed To Human Knowledge With A False Theory

John: Is not the lesson of science that what we take to be knowledge is approximations all the way down...


John, you know your wife loves you, and she knows you love her. I believe you know that because you have written on that subject and I believed you were writing the truth. I can't explain why I know you were writing the truth but my experience with texts has led me to believe it is so. You don't approximately love her, or vice versa, and for my own curious reasons, I don't approximately doubt you.

Perhaps these rigorous truth conditionals and edgings disappear before a loved one's gaze, a loved one's touch. And this wouldn't be evidence from material biology since there is nothing but form masquerading as matter. It would evidence from existential certitude, which somehow summarizes all of conscious material form.
