Jul 30, 2020 at 13:07 | comment | added | Turtur | Well, I was not saying that scientific claims lack justification if that is what you mean; clearly that is not the case. And by no means did I want to suggest that scientists could not ever be right about the evidence per se (though that is something to be discussed). Rather, I meant to say that there are no scientific resources for evaluating a theory beyond the empirical evidence it purports to explain; and such an evaluation is obviously bound to be defeasible. | |
