He credits R. G. Collingwood&#039;s &#039;&#039;Essay on Metaphysics&#039;&#039; as the turning point, for its account of the presuppositions everyone holds without knowing it, and argues that stating one&#039;s own assumptions plainly is the precondition for reasoning about cosmology at all.<br /> <br /> &#039;&#039;&#039;[https://thescientificworldview.blogspot.com/2026/03/getting-your-philosophical-ducks-in-row.html Read the full article at &#039;&#039;The Scientific Worldview&#039;&#039; &amp;rarr;]&#039;&#039;&#039;<br /> <br /> [[Category:Article]]<br /> [[Category:Physics Articles]]<br /> [[Category:Articles from The Scientific Worldview]]<br /> [[Category:Articles 2026]]<br /> [[Category:Philosophy]]<br /> [[Category:Big Bang]]</div>
