Elusive Certainty & Determining Truth

Can we be certain about anything or is truth subjective? Ontology, epistemology, and the modes and tools of discerning truth(logos, ethos, pathos, epistemological assumptions, superstition, inductive and deductive reasoning).

  • How we pursue truth — including modes of reasoning/persuasion, epistemological assumptions, and superstition.
