I have to write a 1 page paper for my philosophy class on knowledge vs. opinion.
these are the notes she provided after everyone wrote it terribly.
The argument is as follows:
1. Knowledge is knowledge of what is, while ignorance is attached to what is not.
2. Opinion lies between knowledge and ignorance.
3. From (1) and (2), opinion depends on whatever lies between what is and what is not.
4. The Form of X is always X.
5. Beautiful things are also ugly, just things are also unjust, holy things are also unholy, double things are also things are also half, and big things also little.
6. From (5), a particular X thing is both X and non-X.
7. From (4) and (6), a particular thing both is and is not, whereas the Form of X is,
8. Therefore, from (1), (3), and (7) the Form of X is the object of knowledge, whereas X things ae the objects of opinion.
