Hi Ben,
Missing target. You said,
" You argue that our experience of the world, and our ability to
understand the world through language and reflection are illusory,
misleading and untrustworthy."
I was indicating that sense of self as primary in human functioning is
illusory and the sense of correctness in self perception is problematic. The
reality(!) is we as humans interact with the world. The problem is that we
have a big bunch of theories that presume and derive from an idea of
primacy of sense of self and, to some extent, a belief in the correctness of
human perception. I'm suggesting the difference in epistemological
foundation implies some radical change is needed in theory.
Best wishes,
Terry
