Document Summary
Paradox about virtue ethics: if i"m virtuous, then i don"t need to make effort to do the right thing then just be a bad person, and, so the notion of merit : is a paradox. Illustrate with a proof, who can recognoize of math, when you never learnt math before. When you are placed in front of a math truth, as long as you understand it, you then know it. Not like geology, or history, which you had to learn before you see it. Objectivity of knowledge: subjectivity and projection of subjectivity. Argument is good or wrong, need to look at this. Measures of objectivity: if i see something in front of me, then i use one of my senses. The judgement of one sens is judeged for a consilia, with the agreement of another sens. One you know something can be touched and seen, then you may be decide that this is not a illusiviisa hallucination.
