You are a fool, as the quote that you referenced above, speaks of ignorance, of which, no one is responsible, as it just speaks of exposure, or rather, the lack thereof. You are seemingly a frog that jumps ignorantly.

Not a moron. a smart peep.
Willing to speak outside boundaries.
There are no 'experts'
a term for ' those less stupid'

I respect that.

because 90% + of humanity is so stupid it does not know it is stupid.

All the above is your rationalization so as to lift yourself up, your ego that is. I have heard this from you from the start, and it's constant, do you actually have low self esteem? Such that you have to continually tell everyone, thus yourself, that you are smarter than everyone else. Psychology 101, you must therefore have low self esteem. It would seem you are the largest part of that 90%. What? Did you conduct a scientific study to come to that percentage, sheesh, some peeps kids... Go figure!

Now that I know you face such ends, regardless of the causal, I quit, and shall never speak to you again. If only to the extent, if ever, to say, "I'm sorry." And I truly am, and see much wisdom in 'unknowingly burning out, instead of knowingly fading away.'

May you find happiness in these last days, see the world through the eyes of a child, OH the magnificence of it all, this earth, this symbiosis. Mark my words, as I truly love everyone, save those that hate, and cannot be made to not.

Surround yourself with the beauty of nature and consume 'only' that of fresh organic raw plants, the other side of the animal EQUATION, and you shall be cured. Make no mistake, if you do not already know of this, it is true!


Then, and only then, shall we argue of the hypothetical, you have far more important things to consider.

No, there are theoretical knowledge and practical knowledge.

Many blind typers who can fluidly type on keyboard may not conciously know where the keys are, but their hands has musslememory.

Many eggheads has a theoretical theory about how the real world works, but when they step out of their lab to the real world they often gets depressed because they can't handle the real world and it's ensuing chaos.

At age 11 i undeerstood epistemology.
As a life long facet of consciousness and perception. mind.

The theory of knowing.

Is such a huge field it needs a full forum just to probe its edges.
I do not post here because my thinking would result in 10 page essays.

It s good to see topic...."Re: There is no such thing as knowing"

Surely you jest, what he says doesn't make logically sense, sure there are uncertainties about knowing something, but that doesn't mean that we know absolute nothing about anything.

Man can only ever know that, within the framework, that he's established. So he can know himself, eventually!

Surely i jest
logic
An incredibly powerful tool.

logic is naught to do with pain and pleasure.
Beauty and desire
love, compassion fear horror angst indifference
boredom lust hate guilt remorse.

those things by which we live.

yet my post including rancal as sidebar was logical.
and you f***ed it.

btw

all we know is cogito ergo sum. all else is a variable.

pass the port pls

knowledge is of immediate experience and in immediacy this perceptional experience is truth until a reason arises to question one's immediate experience/perception. Truth to the individual is experience to the group it is consensus agreement. Knowledge is of an object and/or the relations between two or more objects.

There are two types of knowledge, knowledge by experience and knowledge by processing the experience. You have knowledge by experience when you taste something for example. It is plain and simple, you taste it and you know it. You have knowledge by processing the experience when you read and understand what I said for example. You however need to experience the outcome of the process in order to understand. Understanding however is not possible without processing. Knowledge how cannot be transmitted to another person. The taste of something could be different between me and you, the taste of sugar for example. You cannot describe it to me so that is "knowing how". I, however, can explain what I have in my mind, my knowledge for example and you can understand it and that is "knowing that".

Knowing is remembering an experience, indeed experience and knowledge are one and the same thing. A forgotten experience is a forgotten knowing.
