On Relativism and Disagreement
Nov 24th, 2007 by manager
Narinig ni Ederlyn na nagtatawanan si Inday at Dodong habang kinakain nila ang nilutong Paella ni Inday kaya dumaan sya sa harap ng dalawa at nagparinig…
Ederlyn: Hoi Dodong! Ambabaw mo talaga. Nabola ka naman nyang si Inday eh ang korni korni naman nya. At bakit kinakain mo yan? Dog food ba yan?
Haharapin ni Inday si Ederlyn ng nakapameywang…
Inday: It has often been proposed that claims about what is funny, delicious, or likely are “subjective,” in the sense that their truth depends not only on how things are with the objects they explicitly concern, but on how things are with some subject not explicitly mentioned. This thought is supported by the striking degree to which we differ in our judgments about these matters.
Inday: If there are wholly objective properties of funniness, deliciousness, or likelihood, then most of us must be defective in our capacity to detect them. We are humor-blind, or taste-blind, or likelihood-blind, in much the same way that some of us are color-blind. But this diagnosis clashes with the way we think and talk about these domains. In our judgments about what is delicious, we lack the humility color-blind people show in their judgments about what is red or green. We do not seem to regard the fact that many others disagree with us as grounds for caution in calling foods delicious. We readily judge things to be funny in light of our own senses of humor, even though when challenged we can offer no grounds for thinking our senses of humor are the “right” ones. We readily judge things to be likely in light of what we know, even while acknowledging that our knowledge is only partial, and that others may know more than we do.
Ederlyn: Syet… talo na naman ako.

Tanong ko lang po:
Magiging Senadora po ba si Inday?
Kakandidato po ba si Inday for President of RP?
Hindi po ba kumandidato na siya pagka-Presidente?
Tinalo ni Mananabako! O iyon yong ate niya?
