#a priori

[wisdomfish]

To reject the historicity of the Gospels ‘a priori’ because they contain miracles violates logical and historical standards of reasoning. Since the Gospels are well established historically, the miracel stories they convey deserve serious historical consideration.

Chapter 12 of A Priori is here!

Third year at Hogwarts: a chance to take new classes, join new clubs, and maintain old feuds. Castiel and Dean are headed back to Hogwarts, angrier and more awkward around each other than they've ever been. Quidditch try-outs and Duelling Club rivalries put them to the test, but this year, something bigger than bludgers and more harrowing than hexes might be coming their way.

Read it here on AO3!

And since it's been a goodly while, check out our recap of last chapter to get you back up to speed - it's below the cut :D

LAST TIME ON A PRIORI…

Castiel agonises over what to give Dean for a birthday present, and ends up considering the importance of boundaries and deciding not to give Dean anything. He has a run-in with Ruby, who tries to tell Castiel that Dean is a Muggle-born. Castiel disbelieves her, thinking she’s just being spiteful. Dean visits the Owlery and hugs his owl, Gandalf, and thinks about Castiel and why they aren’t talking. He has an eye-opening conversation with Philippe LeChat about blood status, and what seems like a life-threatening encounter with one of Lisa Braeden’s Herbology creations. At a Quidditch match, he opens up to Lisa, and watches Jo win the Quidditch Cup with the Gryffindor Quidditch team. Later, Dean goes back to the library and, after a talk with Joshua the librarian about literary censorship, decides to leave the Martin Miggs comic with all its Muggle stereotypes on the shelf, but with some annotations. Ash finds Castiel to call in a favour: Castiel promised to help Ash find a new base for his illicit potion-making business. While trying to move the potions ingredients out of the dungeons, they are both caught by Professor Abaddon Apollyon, who confiscates the ingredients and gives out a week’s worth of detentions. The detentions end up being with Lisa, and she and Castiel end up passing notes about Dean, which leaves Castiel no wiser and a bit sadder. Dean discusses his summer plans with his fellow Hufflepuffs, and then heads to the end-of-year feast to find out that Hufflepuff won the House Cup. He goes to visit the curious door with its strange markings and mechanics; he can’t make any progress in getting it open. Finally, Dean takes the train home and on Platform 9¾, Lisa kisses him for the first time. Dean turns to see Castiel was watching, but says nothing to him.

«El hombre es una máquina tan compleja que resulta imposible formarse primero una idea clara al respecto y luego definirla en consecuencia. Por eso todas las investigaciones que los más grandes filósofos han hecho a priori, es decir, queriendo servirse en cierta manera de las alas del espíritu, han sido vanas. Así, únicamente a posteriori o tratando de discernir el alma a través de los órganos del cuerpo, se puede, no digo descubrir con evidencia la naturaleza misma del hombre, pero sí alcanzar el mayor grado de probabilidad posible sobre este tema.»

Julien Offray de la Mettrie: El hombre máquina. Eudeba, pág. 35. Buenos Aires, 1963

Praxeology & Reality

"It is not a deficiency of the system of aprioristic science that it does not convey to us full cognition of reality. Its concepts and theorems are mental tools opening the approach to a complete grasp of reality; they are, to be sure, not in themselves already the totality of factual knowledge about all things. Theory and the comprehension of living and changing reality are not in opposition to one another."

— Ludwig von Mises

CONHECIMENTO A PRIORI E A POSTERIORI

Conhecimento a priori é o conhecimento que é justificado independentemente de (ou antes de) experiência. Se afirmo que “todos os solteiros são não-casados”, não preciso observar uma por uma as pessoas solteiras e verificar se não estão casadas. Ou seja, não preciso recorrer à observação para saber se a afirmação é verdadeira ou falsa. Basta uma análise de conceitos. Conhecimento a…

«La metafísica, conocimiento especulativo de la razón, completamente aislado, que se levanta enteramente por encima de lo que enseña la experiencia, con meros conceptos (no aplicándolos a la intuición, como hacen las matemáticas), donde, por tanto, la razón ha de ser discípula de sí misma, no ha tenido hasta ahora la suerte de poder tomar el camino seguro de la ciencia. Y ello a pesar de ser más antigua que todas las demás y de que seguiría existiendo aunque éstas desaparecieran totalmente en el abismo de una barbarie que lo aniquilara todo. Efectivamente, en la metafísica la razón se atasca continuamente, incluso cuando, hallándose frente a leyes que la experiencia más ordinaria confirma, ella se empeña en conocerlas a priori. Incontables veces hay que volver atrás en la metafísica, ya que se advierte que el camino no conduce a donde se quiere ir.»

Inmanuel Kant: Crítica de la razón pura. Prólogo: B XIV. Ediciones Alfaguara, S. A., pág. 19. Madrid, 1978.

Ideas cannot exist only "in the mind"

There is no sense in which an idea can exist only "in the mind." To come to understand and consider any idea is the outcome of actions such as learning and thinking, which require the employment of a substrate called the physical person. And to bring a given idea to mind from storage is also an action with specific costs. Thinking of philosophy means that one is unable to also play football, at least not well. There is a choice and act involved in considering any given concept as opposed to any other, or to engaging in some other less abstract activity altogether. The mind does not exist without the substrate of body/brain. Nor is it reducible to such substrate. Consciousness is an emergent layer of complexity that has evolved out of, and along with, biological structures. Those are scarce resources, which when used in one way cannot also be used in another incompatible way.

On the other hand, no idea exists outside the mind either. Ideas only register within active human understandings within each person. The external markers for ideas, such as books, or instantiations of ideas in the form of physical structures and systems, are, without the ongoing individual human activities of deriving and imputing meaning to them, merely so many rearranged atoms with no significance. Significance comes about when living people relate to them as being meaningful. Just as the mind is emergent from and with the biological layer, ideas and meanings are emergent from and with the mind layer.
