Does fallibilism countenance its own verification conditions?

"Fallibilism is the view that our beliefs, even our best ones, are always open to error. It is often presented as a posture of intellectual humility rather than a technical doctrine. But once stated, it raises a curious question about its own status. If all claims are in principle revisable, what about the claim that all claims are revisable? Does fallibilism merely express an attitude, or does it assert something that would itself need justification? Asking whether fallibilism has verification conditions is a way of probing whether it stands as a claim within inquiry, or only as a stance about inquiry itself."

Each of us has his or her own philosophical history and journey, and during these walks, we introduce each other to our recent questions and reflections. There is no assigned reading, no required text. Bring your own recommendations, or see what has been recommended by others before. In this dropbox folder you'll find texts and videos that have been discussed on previous occasions. You'll also find a list of recommended texts, if you are new to philosophy.

We gather at Flywheel Coffee, near Stanyan and Page. At exactly 11:15am, we'll be just outside the front door, and begin a hike through Golden Gate Park, returning to Flywheel by 1:00pm. During the walk, we'll discuss your philosophical topics, whatever they may be. If it looks like it'll rain, we'll dip into a restaurant instead.
