Either philosophy is a dead end, then, or it is the base of all knowledge. Depends on whether knowledge is a tree or a graph, which is... a philosophical question!
My brain exploded.
- beala 14y agoIf there is some characteristic Q that is true of all knowledge, then Q must be true of Q. A cycle!
- Cushman 14y agoOnly if Q is knowable.
- jlgreco 14y agoTrees are connected acyclic graphs, so knowledge could be both. ;)
- tsahyt 14y agoYes but graphs can very well be cyclic, so eventually a path from a node could lead back to the node itself.
