I would agree about splitting it into separate areas of discussion. Just the sheer bulk of it allows arguments. I for one argue about the rules of prediction and it's conflict with never assume. If nothing is to be regarded as an adament truth, only 99.9% can be obtained, then how can one make estimated predictions from incomplete understandings? Knowledge is as it says a process of "trial and error," but then this conflicts with do not act upon these believed axioms.

I am one for make a good guess and see if it is right. How one carries failure or success is what gains respect of one for me. It is the courage of character shown when attempts are made, success gained, or losses substained that truly show a human. I believe it was Abraham Lincoln who stated, and I am paraphrasing, "If you want to test a man's character, give him power."
