Do You Think of Intuition in Philosophy?
There's a lot of debates in contemporary philosophy about the role of intuition in philosophical methodology. Do you trust that there's something wrong more than i trust the argument? I don't know how to say what's wrong with the argument but i'm going to find it, he says. Following the argument where it leads is a kind of ideal for us but on one's interpretation of that i don't really think one should and that's partly because our ability to know not by way of argument how to think about a topic is more reliable than our best arguments we can come up with. "Our knowledge often outruns what we can argue for" - John Stuart Mill.
