Humanities Homework Help

In this unit, you were introduced to the two basic systems of understanding “how we know what we know.” In one of them, rationalism, knowledge proceeds from innate ideas that we are born with, in the other, empiricism, it proceeds from what we experience with our senses.

In an essay not to exceed two pages, discuss or explore one of the following questions:

1. Does it make a difference where our knowledge comes from?

2. Does knowledge really come from both of these sources?

3. Does knowledge really come from somewhere else?

Make sure you back up your claims with an argument organized into paragraphs.
