Isn't it possible that what reporters in Ukraine are showing me is what really happened? And if not, then how would I decide what really happened? Or are we doomed to doubt our own eyes and ears, and never reach any conclusion, because someone might be deceiving us? How do you figure out what really happened, if not from your own eyes and ears? Do you assume that because someone showed you something, therefore it is not true? How do you come to a conclusion about anything if you doubt everything you see and hear? Do you make up your own conclusions out of thin air because you can't believe anything you see and hear? Here's an example. Ukraine says they are winning. Pro-Kremlin, pro-Putin reporters in Russia say Ukraine is winning. I see endless videos of dead Russian soldiers, bombed out Russian tanks and APCs, and even Russian generals showing maps that reveal the fact that they are retreating. I hear reporters from all over the world saying that Ukraine is advancing and Russia is retreating. What conclusion, if any, can I draw from that? Is Ukraine advancing and Russia retreating? If I'm supposed to doubt everything I see and hear, is there ever going to be a situation where I have enough evidence to draw a conclusion about anything? |
