our actions are still justified. The resolution to this paradox, as Kripke sees it, is a skeptical one. He agrees with Wittgensteinin and the skeptic that meaning cannot be derived from determinant facts, but rather than an end, Kripke sees this as a reason to revaluate whether there even needs to be determinant facts for an individual to claim a meaning as true.
