The Fallibility of Human Knowledge

This chapter explores the concept of fallibility and the limitations of human knowledge. It emphasizes that no thought is infallible and that we are constantly gathering evidence and interpreting it, which makes us prone to error. The chapter also delves into the idea of perfect circles in geometry and how our imperfect physical representations can still lead us to gain knowledge about abstract concepts. It concludes by highlighting the importance of seeking knowledge rather than being fixated on certainty.
