Re: To All Philosophy People: The Question of Belief.
[ QUOTE ]
To call something "strong" just based on it's ambition seems a little weird to me. "I believe all of science and history don't exist, and reality can be summed up in one word: cheese. Wow, that's really ambitious, what a strong position." I had always thought the strength of a position was based on how easily defensible and how well supported it is, but you're welcome to have your own definition.

Ummm, i think he meant the opposite. That is, the less ambitious a philosophical position, the harder it is to attack it. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
