The Empiricist Rationalist Distinction

The second can't be called a hypothesis, but there isn't a sharp boundary line between them. And so you could be an empiricist and still have this complicated picture like you were describing that it's actually second, third hand experience and predegested set to us. If you're not saying either it's innate knowledge or it's straight from sensation, no mature epistemology is either of those things. So one might grant that Moore was right if he's interpreted like this,. A proposition saying that here is a physical object may have the same logical status as one saying thathere is a red patch.
