Inference and its role in NS (General)

As an addendum: in regards to "truth," my own position is that we can never be ultimately sure if we have 'gotten to the bottom' of some endeavor; thus 'truth' is ever a moving target. The displacement of newtonian physics by relativity is the story of all science. -The key is that things generally do get more "trustworthy" over time. Science corrects itself. This point should beunderlined...-As a whole, this has been exactly how the body of science has proceeded; you seem to suggest my discussion as outlaid by the philosophy of science is only of theoretical importance. I just happen to be quite passionate about it, and my radical skepticism drives me to question deeply. Other (more professional) philosophers perform the same function. But we are few, radical skeptics and general doubters...-But it is also as much observation as by theory: one must simply have the patience to read from the beginning.

\"It is, brahmin, because of attachment to views, adherence to views, fixation on views, addiction to views, obsession with views, holding firmly to views that ascetics fight with ascetics.\"
