Pragmatic Vs Practical Knowledge- Skepticism
So it’s a game of probability in the end?
I think nothing can be proven exhaustively.. truth is only what humans can perceive.. Let me take example of third umpire helping decisions in cricket for close run-outs. Before this technology, batsmen were given out/not-out based on the limited eye capability of the on-field umpire.. was that truth ? No.. but the best tool available to know the truth was trusting the eye and mind of the umpire, as to what he saw. Now any batsman can claim that how the umpire is sure ? He can’t be sure, but that is the best tool available with us. Knowing truth is dependent on what we can perceive and observe and logically extrapolate.. if these tools are doubted, then truth definition is also doubted.
