00:00 Intro
00:55 Explaining Street Epistemology
04:21 Filling out the Survey
04:36 Interview begins
08:25 24. It is possible that
some of my beliefs are not true
15:45 2. We all share the same reality
and only interpret it differently.
18:49 Check in for more time, invite a question
19:54 6. Strong belief, even without action,
can change external reality.
21:46 how would you define external world?
28:23 how are we conceptualizing the truth?
31:44 Is it possible to be mistaken?
34:34 Why bother looking for the truth?
38:07 3. Truth depends on the opinions and beliefs of people.
38:45 5. Something is true if everyone agrees.
40:55 You can't be wrong about anything you think?
44:44 Were there Dinosaurs?
45:42 Ending on good terms
47:34 Outro
The goal of SE is not necessarily to change a belief, but to exercise and explore good reasoning for how we know what we know. Is it possible to resolve differences of belief without debate?
Are we open minded to the idea that we are close minded? What would it take to change our minds?
I am an amateur philosopher. I can be wrong about my beliefs and would be happy to discover that I am.
I encourage my viewers to consider this approach the next time we misunderstand or disagree with someone.
Please consider multiple examples of this Conversation style before making a final judgment about it.

Ep 443: Feedback | Anthony Magnabosco | Creationist Embraces Skepticism (3) (Permeation)
Summary: A retired dad now anthropology student returns with an update three months after our second chat regarding his efforts to reach his well-intentioned wife who is homeschooling their kids using Young Earth Creationist curricula.
Watch video here: https://youtu.be/eXTAKC9LW5c
I have the utmost respect for both this man and his wife. Should she ever one day stumble across this video series, I hope she does not feel that she was blindsided, that we were making fun of her, or anything disrespectful like that. In my view, these interactions was far too valuable to not share publicly. I hope they both feel the same way. Perhaps we can show our appreciation for their candor and honesty by offering them both some constructive guidance in the video comments below.

I think both of us were a bit nervous to speak with each other again here. Perhaps we both felt the implications of what it was that we were discussing, recording, and perhaps eventually, releasing.
I have the utmost respect for both this man and his wife. Should she ever one day stumble across this video series, I hope she does not feel that she was blindsided, that we were making fun of her, or anything disrespectful like that. In my view, these interactions was far too valuable to not share publicly. I hope they both feel the same way. Perhaps we can show our appreciation for their candor and honesty by offering them both some constructive guidance in the video comments below.

Ep 440: Dialogue | Anthony Magnabosco | Apollos (3) | Boundaries (Tenacious Apologist Returns)
Summary: My tenacious interlocutor returns to discuss his lively Street Epistemology Discord server engagements that occurred in the interim. I do some more "messaging" than normal in this one, likely in response to them asking me questions.
te·na·cious
/təˈnāSHəs/
adjective
1. tending to keep a firm hold of something; clinging or adhering closely.
2. not readily relinquishing a position, principle, or course of action; determined.
3. persisting in existence; not easily dispelled.
Watch video of talk here: https://youtu.be/HQWeRF0OBG4
Note: I found in interesting how "importance" of the claim was being viewed differently by both parties here. The students seem to be using it as "needed" while I seem to be viewing it as "fantastic." If only I had asked something like, "Are you saying that, the more necessary a claim is to a person, the more likely the attestations of others from a long time ago are true?", or something to that effect. IL2 at one point asks, "What happens to me?," as if that should be a factor in assessing the truth of a claim. I was later reminded about a discussion I had about differences in adjective meanings, like we might see with a word like "important" or "extraordinary". In their view, it seems, if a claim is "important" to them personally (like "Jesus rose from the dead," it's less likely someone would lie or be mistaken about the claim, and therefore you can accept what they stated as true to a high degree of confidence. Whereas from my perspective (and perhaps others who might be more skeptically-minded) we see "importance" as a biasing factor to control for; the more important or impactful one might find a claim to them personally is a reason to apply more—not less—scrutiny to the supporting reasons. Check out Pinecreek on YouTube and his more advanced "Flying Man" ( https://youtu.be/2ZNiCpeF_Jg?t=4789 ) example, which is further along than I was here with my off-the-cuff car metaphor in 2019. I'd like to see this idea of how we might be using adjectives differently explored further in future SE discussions.

0:00:00 Intro
0:01:08 Saying hello & Survey overview
0:05:04 19. I often investigate beliefs that do not match my own.
0:07:38 20. I am comfortable with saying: "I don't know".
0:09:07 21. It is beneficial to find out when I am wrong about something.
0:15:03 22. I will abandon a belief if I discover reliable information that falsifies it.
0:20:59 23. The more unusual the statement, the stronger the evidence needs to be.
0:26:49 24. It is possible that some of my beliefs are not true
0:30:49 1. A statement is true when it corresponds to reality.
0:35:40 2. We all share the same reality and only interpret it differently.
0:39:37 3. Truth depends on the opinions and beliefs of people.
0:44:09 4. People create words and define their meaning.
0:46:22 5. A statement is true if everyone agrees.
0:49:10 6. Strong belief, even without action, can change external reality.
0:54:26 8. Someone can be certain something is true yet still be mistaken.
0:55:53 9. A test that cannot identify a failure is a valid test.
0:56:50 9. We should be satisfied with a test that can only confirm our claim.
0:59:53 10. If all members of a society share a belief, they are justified to hold that belief.
1:02:37 11. Believing something that is false feels just like believing something that is true.
1:03:54 17. Someone is justified in their beliefs until they are proven wrong.

Mistakes: Ugh, so many on my part. Apologies honey for the example! Don't assume college students all have cars! Don't suggest positions my interlocutor does not hold! This was recorded a while back, and I can see so many things now that I'd do different. Oh well. Maybe I'll make a break-down video on this one day. Thanks for hopefully being charitable in your feedback to everyone in this video.
