Help Me Help You

I first had a passion for science and physics. There were many ideas I wanted to prove, like orgone energy and ghosts. I obviously was a logical mess at the time. Over time as I started to understand the tenets of logic and reason, I shed the majority of my unsupported beliefs and even found problems with science and physics. After a certain point, I realized that I wasn’t going to find my logical consistency with science – which is surprising because most people do.

I ended up going to philosophy for a better foundation. This helped in some ways but where philosophy went in the 19th and 20th centuries was off the rails. I started to see that some of the ancient philosophers (Plato and Aristotle) built much of the philosophical foundation that we have today. I’ve even discovered problems with this. You may be saying at this point, who is this person that can easily disagree with the greats? Well, I’m nobody special. Like many others, I’m just trying to make sense of the world. If I find logical inconsistency, incoherence, or fallacies, I’m going to identify it and attempt to rectify it. After many conversations with many friends, I think that I’ve solved many of the problems in philosophy and the philosophy of science. Namely in the branch of Epistemology. With your help in critiquing my work show me where I’ve gone off the rails. Just let me know. But, keep in mind that it will take time for me to explain all I’ve come to understand. So, please be patient so I can build a solid foundation for you to critique. When I am done, we will both be the better for it.
