Think about the following philosophical questions and spend some time writing down you thoughts (you can either answer one or all of the questions directly, or just give your overall thoughts of these concepts):

What actions can we justify when we are sure beyond a shadow of a doubt that we’re right?

In what ways are our social practices, personal relationships, moral judgments, foreign policies, and political beliefs based on foundations of “knowledge” that, when pressed, we can’t even satisfactorily define or demonstrate?

If we can’t define ”sandwich,” how can we define “truth,” “justice,” or “freedom”?
