It's two essays, one for each of the questions posted in the original post. Yea, what you said about logical positivism being a loose category, that scares me, because the Kant I can find, but the logical positivism, where's that. We aren't reading anyone. We just get these summary lectures.
I always get the feeling that he's holding back because he thinks we can't handle this stuff for real, but that he is using an assignment that he used in a class in which he didn't hold back, and they actually studied texts.
I definitely am not going to talking to him or anyone in the philosophy department because I'm super shy. It's probably the right thing to do, but I just can't.
But thanks guys.
I'm pretty sure I can do the Kant essay now, but number two I'm having a hard time understanding because how can logical empiricism try to understand the logical structure of mature? science when logical empiricism is the logical structure of science? Or isn't it?
