Philosophy of common sense a view of perceptual and reflective judgments

in Project HOPE3 years ago


In academic jargon it is often mentioned that science provides knowledge of reality, this assumption infers that science leads to the overcoming of our vision of the world given by common sense, in other words, scientific research provides us with a vision based on experience, while common sense provides us with perceptive and reflective judgments of our daily life.

The judgments we make as a result of our common sense, belong to a series of codes that have been fixed throughout history in our everyday language, even form part of the reflections that we use daily to judge certain situations that at first glance are considered irrational, misleading, foolish, i.e. are opposed to good judgment.

This implies that, although science can lead to the overcoming of deeply rooted beliefs, common sense reflects a more basic and lasting level of experience in time, an element that, from a philosophical point of view, common sense constitutes a kind of observational intelligence that is the zero degree of all intelligence, which has led to the deduction that common sense is the structural basis of thought.

In this order of ideas, it should be emphasized that the philosophy of meaning interpreted from a vision of perceptive and reflective judgments, reveals that this is not a basic knowledge as it has been labeled throughout history, nor the sum of pre-judgments, but an accumulation of collective wisdom of understandings about something that is known because it has already been observed and has the foundations and background to assume that it is true.

In closing, it is necessary to point out that while scientific realism infers that common sense only leads to perceptual and reflective judgments of our daily lives through basic assumptions, it is worth mentioning that scientists frequently appeal to common sense to justify their hypotheses, which reinforces that the philosophy of common sense is a transcendental part of all knowledge.

You are sharing images of something that was likely NOT created by our predecessors. What are you trying to prove? We didn't create those statues, you moron. Your post is NOT free of plagiarism. IT EMBODIES PLAGIARISM! Did you build those? NO? GO fuck yourself. Fuck the Whales too! They are crooks who take from you. Dipshit.

Ignorance is part of everyday life.

Do you recognize the statue, you know it is a sculpture in honor of the Greek sage and historian Herodotus, recognized for his intellectual skills and conjectures based on common sense, I ask you, can you find any visual relation of the statue with the title and content of this publication, where is the plagiarism, the image is free to use and I have referenced it in the lower segment of this article.

There are haters everywhere. No doubt there are. Unfortunately. I think I know where this is coming from....

Define, "hater".?

I do realize that but, I don't think our "ancestors" made it. If that was the case, we could recreate it today. Sad to say, we cannot recreate such splendor. Ask an engineer. They are more than........ okay, less than happy to tell you that we cannot recreate such splendor. The past civilization was Aeons beyond what we can do now.
Unless you ask a liar who is full of false pride.

YES, I fucking recognize it, you dolt. WE, as in our ANCESTORS, DID NOT FUCKING BUILD IT! How could they? They were a bunch of dolts like you who easily believe everything put before them. Do you expect those idiots to build anything worthy of mention witout you resorting to copy and pasting a bunch of propaganda?????

Really thoughtful piece. Thanks

I would put it this way, common sense piece lol.
