Genia Schönbaumsfeld has recently argued for the view that our ordinary perceptual reasons provide support for heavyweight metaphysical and epistemological views, such as that there is a mind-independent physical world. Call this the Heavyweight Reasons Thesis. In this paper, I argue that we should reject the Heavyweight Reasons Thesis. I also argue that the rejection of the Heavyweight Reasons Thesis is compatible with the Factive Perceptual Reasons Thesis, the thesis that our perceptual reasons for our ordinary beliefs can be factive, but that factive reasons aren’t necessarily better reasons than subjectively indiscriminable non-factive reasons.



中文翻译:

有重量级的感性原因吗?

Genia Schönbaumsfeld 最近支持这样一种观点,即我们普通的知觉理由为重量级的形而上学和认识论观点提供支持,例如存在一个独立于心灵的物理世界。称其为重量级理由论。在这篇论文中,我认为我们应该拒绝重量级理由论。我还认为,拒绝重量级理由论与事实性知觉理由论是一致的,即我们对普通信念的感性理由可以是事实性的,但事实性理由不一定比主观上不可区分的非事实性更好的理由原因。
