    You’re picking up what I’m putting down. You may also like other epistemological arguments like Chung Tzu’s butterfly, Boltzmann brains, last Thursdayism, Plato’s cave, and so on. Most knowledge, including scientific knowledge is axiomatic aka built from axioms / assumptions. Like I’m assuming the time before now actually happened and it’s not the case that reality came into being as is just now.
