The Munchhausen Trilemma: Solved
The Münchhausen trilemma is the following: When trying to prove a fundamental truth, you run into one of, two of, or all three of the following issues: 1: Circular reasoning 2: Infinite regress 3: An arbitrary starting point But what if these are not in fact “problems”, but three different ways to observe the fundamental truth? Reconciling the three and showing how they function together is what I endeavor to articulate here.
