Existential Rationalism: Handling Hume’s Fork by Marcel Eschauzier
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 2 MB
Overview: Do you wonder why the world has become so irrational?
Are you curious which Eastern epiphany can fix this?
Did you know that the belief in quantum computers is irrational since their premise is a blatant contradiction: “operation by pure observation”?
The quantum computer misconception reminds us that metaphysics, the first philosophy, is still the first science.
Why did we forget this? Because David Hume’s centuries-old challenge to reason made philosophy look like a frivolous word game. Indeed, empirical science has changed the world. But Hume’s skepticism also licenses haughty claims of objective knowledge propped by deficient peer reviews and citations.
Existential rationalism counters with a revolutionary combination of phenomenology (“first-person philosophy”) and mainstay Zen. It unmasks the Western belief in a knowable reality as a compelling illusion produced precisely by our desire to transcend. And it also has the remedy! By tracing back reason’s roots in human value, it dusts off the principles of rational thought as still our best bet to understand and predict the world, notwithstanding the significance of experimental verification.
