Refutation of Bishop Berkeley
The Samuel Johnson Sound Bite Page
After we came out of the church, we stood talking for some time together of Bishop Berkeley's ingenious sophistry to prove the nonexistence of matter, and that every thing in the universe is merely ideal. I observed, that though we are satisfied his doctrine is not true, it is impossible to refute it. I never shall forget the alacrity with which [Dr. Sam] Johnson answered, striking his foot with mighty force against a large stone, till he rebounded from it -- "I refute it thus."
James Boswell, 1791.
My comment in Philosophy 101 back in the day regarding Zeno’s paradox arrow - anyone who actually believes it would thus be willing to stand 20 yards away and let me shoot an arrow at them.
