I've just remembered to do this posting and after reading the prior entries, felt a sudden apprehension. I suppose I'm just admitting that the entries seem very informed and developed and given my last minute entry, am admitting that my post will be insufficient by comparison. However, considering how Professor Morton has allowed us to post what-ever, so long as we post, I am going to take advantage of that statement. It's better to post than none at all.

In response to the question of whether or not epistemology is 'merely' an expression of values and biases, my answer is a yes for now. But of course there's more to it although I'm not properly prepared to engage in discussion on it yet. However, my reasons for values and bias as knowledge are based on the reasoning that knowledge can be easily biased, which are typically based on our values. To be able to study knowledge and have beliefs without bias (which can skew reason), are definitely an ideal to strive for (equal to objectivity?), but a difficult one I could imagine. Now the question remains, whether or not there even is an objective truth to begin with, for us to study. KC
