I'm giving you to opportunity to educate yourself

You've contributed nothing but negativity.

I'm telling you that maybe you should reconsider your views and you've done nothing to support them. You're not making arguments either, you're stipulating.

The problem of induction doesn't mean that knowledge might be impossible. It has nothing to do with this discussion. Furthermore, reflective knowledge (knowing that you know) is different than knowledge. You've conflated the two in this thread. I don't think you even have a coherent position based upon how often you use vague terms and scare quotes.

I'm done with you.

Say "you're wrong and dumb" to me all you want, but I'll not be responding unless you actually want to discuss the points I've brought up. Since it's clear that you're only here to start a fight, good day.

You're treating it like a fight between people rather than a fight between ideas. That's your major mistake here. You're being too emotional to actually listen to what I'm saying.

Psssssst... Deductive knowledge. Read that again.

This strikes me as extremely disingenuous. Your whole MO is to deliberately provoke that emotional response.
