A= AAHASDWHKDBAWKJDSADKNWA<LDKN!!!!! (Make wierd noises in confusion) John and Rene are my two best friends in different theories!!! Which theory shall i go to???!?!! I= I prefer both... A= WAR WAR WAR~? Immanuel Kant?? I= That's me; THE GUY who wrote The Crtique of Pure Reason, THE GUY who wrote The Critique of Judgement, The guy who wrote The Critique of Practical Reason, THE GUY A= ...U can stop now I= Ehem. A= Last time I heard of You... I heard that you were a Rationalist...? I= I was, indeed, due to the influence of Martin Knutzen, my university professor, a rationalist himself; But, due to David Hume's fascinating articles of Empericism, I decided to take on both sides. Wait, you never read my Essays? A= Let's say that I am both;;; They'll be disappointed at me;;; I= Hey, are you listening? A= Ugh... What shall i Do.... I= ... ok.... Anyways, Then prove to them there is no need for disappointment A= How..? I= Let me tell you how; In the nature of knowledge in mathemiatics and physics, not those of metaphysics, are (quote) "synthetic a priori," that they are practically objects of possible experience, but at the same time, reason is necessarily true too! These are the two terms you shall know; First off, Synthesis means to pertain to, and prioirl, practically to what something is prior to (prior knowledge, etc). The study of mathematics, is both priori and synthesis, due to it deals with time and space; forms of human senses that "condition whatever is apprehended through the senses." Physics is syntehtic and priori due to, in order to understand the concepts of physics it requires both experience (to work it and learn) and reason (the reason why it works). A= In English...? I= (inhale then exhale loudly) Both theories rationalism and emperisicm is required to define objects that come in "mind of people." A= Wow. Thanks! You just influenced me~
