Solution or Description
Question
After reading your book Two Carts, I wanted to sharpen your answer regarding Hume and Kant. Is your idea basically a solution to the philosophical problem, or only a good description of our actual situation?
Answer
“In his book” — by someone I know? 🙂
The description itself is the solution. Since we do in fact place trust in our senses and in our inferences, that is a sign that we assume the existence of a coordinating factor and ideal observation. That is the “theological” plane. On the “philosophical” plane, there are proofs for the existence of such a factor from the primary direction, the physico-theological one. See the third and fourth notebooks here on the site about this.
