I just discovered an entry at James N. Anderson's weblog with which I agree entirely, not that I disagree with many of Professor Anderson's other posts. His Credible Testimony makes some of the same points that I made in Is She Believable? Interestingly the posts were uploaded on the same day, October 1st. I hadn't read his piece and there is no evidence he had read mine. In these trying times of deep disagreement we should take some pleasure from any agreement that comes our way.
Both posts are examples of how philosophers can help raise the level of public discourse.
But who reads us? And how many have the mental stamina to 'process' our distinctions?
