Dear lfc, thing is that you are expressing your belief that knowledge is constructed and I am expressing my belief that it is not a "construct" (I hope you understand what construct means), but it is real. These are just the different beliefs, not the knowledge. I was saying the same thing since begining that Bruno Latour and you have been saying that belief is knowledge (i was saying that your and mine beliefs are different, but you called two different beliefs as two different knowledge as I understood your very last posting. Let me give you an example: Suppose I say, "there are humans like us on the Saturn", and you say, "there are no, thre are not any". These are just the beliefs, my belief just opposite of yours, and not the knowledge. How do you see this as a knowledge???? Fact is that either there is at least one human like us or thre is NO human like us on the planet Saturn, and this is what constitute a knowledge and this is what I believe is REAL. Still, I enjoy discussing with you. Go ahead, i will simply listen you. Regards, Thaha
