This week
theme was Theory of Science, which also was the first theme of the course. We
read “The Problems of Philosophy” by Bernard Russell, who mentioned notions and
ideas that I didn’t thought about before.
The most
interesting part from the reading in my opinion was, the credibility of a
statement. How can we know if a statement that is true or not? I think this is a
thought that we can apply in modern time. We live in a society where we always
are exposed to information in different forms. How can if the knowledge we have
about the information is true or not. Russell argues that you can believe that
the knowledge you have on specific information is true but you can never be
certain that it is actually true.
It is
really a disappointment that we couldn’t have any seminar this week. I would
really like to discuses this within a group, to hear what others think about
it, beside their blog posts.
