Hardly. How can anyone say with any certainty that he lives in a “material” world when he does not know what matter “is”? We run into this phenomenon of assuming a greater knowledge domain from a smaller observer vantage point all the time on science threads where the correspondent insists that randomness exists and yet one cannot say that randomness exists in a system unless he knows what the system “is.”
Great points, Alamo-Girl. Especially thank you for your "little epistemological list." It bears close study!
