Against Philosophical Proofs Against Common Sense. Analysis (2021). (with Louis Doulas)

  • We argue that Bryan Frances’s argument to the effect that philosophy can overturn common sense fails.

Under review

[On the epistemology of material objects]

  • I argue that perceptual experience is a better basis for the epistemology of ontology than alternatives.

[On infinite regress]

  • I argue that metaphysical infinitism and metaphysical foundationalism are on a theoretical par.

[On whether we perceive incars]

  • I argue that there are no extraordinary objects.

[On easy ontology and reference]

  • I argue that easy ontology is either (i) a form of ontological eliminativism or (ii) a form of quantifier variance.

[On the phenomenology of object-experiences]

  • I argue that our experiences around atoms arranged objectwise would be different if those atoms failed to compose an object.

[On evidential adequacy]

  • I argue that if our object beliefs have no defeaters, then ordinary objects exist “in reality”.
