In order for God to actually fit the role of “that than which non greater can be conceived” Anselm must provide something other than just a simple inference from his Christian faith. His thought process derives from believing that God is the supreme being of this world without doubt because no other objection has been made limiting his image and powers. However according to Hume if we were to think of the contradictory ideas of god that would make him unconceivable (Hume, XI). So being able to…
While conducting my student observations; I have gathered up a few inferences about my subject. Over the span of three weeks I recorded observations made solely on things I examined visually. I did not make personal contact, instead I watched my subject from a far. By examining my subject in this manner I was limited only to what I saw to make inferences. My subject’s appearance, social class, and habits all play a role in her interactions with society, and tell me a little about her as an…

From concepts coined by philosophers such as Bertrand Russell, John Stuart Mill, P.F. Strawson, and more; we came to the belief that this theory and idea that there are no minds besides your own to be false based on the arguments of analogical inference, theoretical entities, and ascription of mental predicates. We believe there are other minds out there, and they do not just hypothetically exist in our mind or not at all. When we approach the problem of other…
Project 1: Making Observations and Inferences Observation: Last week, I went to Target Store with my mom. We were getting out of the subway when I saw a big crowd on the street. I saw some police officers putting on barricades and stretching yellow police tape to prevent people and cars from going on that street. Then, I notice some debris including a half part of a bicycle scattered around the street. Walking further toward the store, I saw a black sedan in the middle of the street and a gray…
What- The what of Descartes’ first meditation is doubt. He believes he must begin to doubt all he held true in his life because they were simply falsehoods he accepted and then kept accepting until it was his entire belief system (41). Doubt of what he held as true by sensing and experiencing is the only way to find true knowledge. Reasons- His reasons for feeling as if one must clear their mind of already established biases and have doubt in anything they hold as knowledge is that senses can…
expanded on the importance of a qualitative content analysis as “a research method for the subjective interpretation of the content of text data through the systematic classification process of coding and identifying themes or patterns.” By making inferences objectively and systematically, a specified message can be identified.4 Through sorting texts into categories, content analysis is an efficient way to analyze larger sets of data.5…

previous morning, the County Attorney wants to get started with the investigation of the crime scene. The County Attorney says after looking around “I guess we’ll go upstairs first – and then out to the barn and around there.” This is the first verbal inference about the County Attorney’s chauvinistic feelings. He is thinking along more of a man’s self importance not stopping to think about this is where a woman would or could spend a lot of time thinking about things. The sheriff goes on to…
things-in-themselves) existing in space. As such, the inner relation of consciousness cannot reach knowledge of spatial objects on its own; what is needed is an inferential argument which can help ground a way for the empirical idealist to gain this knowledge. This inference would seem to be the only way to account for a reconciliation between the two separate spheres – i.e. representations in inner sense and things-in-themselves – if indeed there is no God who ensures that we are not deceived…
