Scherer’s article “Descartes’ Escape Plan: Can a Simple Distinction Disprove the Cartesian Circle?”. In this article, Scherer explains Descartes’ “natural light” idea, comparing and contrasting it with Aristotle’s idea of “instinct”. Aristotle’s intuition and Descartes’ natural light are both infallible and self-evident, and they also allow the grasping of what are deemed first principles, which include logic, concepts, and universal propositions, concluding that “natural light is a way of…

by Carl Jung, which explains that humans experience the world using four principal psychological functions and that one of these four functions are dominant most of the time for a person. The four principal psychological functions are sensation, intuition, feeling and thinking. MBTI was proposed to emphasize the value of naturally happening differences and to make the understandings of type theory accessible to individual and groups.

Step 1-Meyers-Briggs Personality ENTJ Extraversion From the results of the Meyers-Briggs Personality test it stated that I was “moderately more preferable to being an extrovert than being an introvert by a margin of 33%” (Jung Typology Test; http://www.humanmetrics.com/cgi-win/jtypes2.asp, 1998).

on personality are Introverted Sensing, Extraverted Thinking, Introverted Thinking, And Extraverted Intuition. Introverted Sensing or, “Si”, is oriented toward the world of forms, essences, generics.

Extraverted intuition(Ne) function of an ISTJ does not serve her very well. It needs a lot of help. Now that I have…

Therefore, we ought to undersatnd the source of argument, which is constructed upon [primary sources]: self-consciousness, intuition, and [secondary sources] deduction, sensation, experience, induction, and testimony. For preachers, the chief of the secondary source is the testimony because the Bible is the divine and inspired testimony of God. • Christianity is not a…

called the "realistic world" whereas the philosophical skeptic believes in the "doubtful world". Intuitively, it goes against all of our senses to believe that such an external and "realistic" world does not exist. Moore is correct in describing our intuitions as the smarter bet, but because he tries to demonstrate his argument deductively, his "proof" is invalid. Just like Kant, I can only believe the external world to exists on faith, and nothing more. Although I have reason to believe the…

placing his faith into destiny rather than himself, but he knows the possible misery that could emerge. Daniel Kahneman once said, “There are some conditions where you have to trust your intuition. When you are under time pressure for a decision, you need to follow intuition.” Laurence had the choice to trust his intuition.
