Four approaches to philosophy

Logic is the main foundation of philosophy. However, very few people care to study or understand logic due to everyone believing that they are skilled enough in the art of reasoning. Logicality is one of our most useful qualities. There are four approaches to philosophy.
1.      If you cannot prove something is real, then it does not lead to a contrary conclusion, but it is still seen as being harmonious in the aspects of method and conception.
2.      There is one thing in which a proposition should and will in most cases confirms. This means that no one can doubt the realities because it would not be a source of dissatisfaction. The hypothesis is then something that everyone must agree on and admit.
3.      Everyone uses scientific methods for many things and only not use it when one does not know how to apply it to the situation.
4.      Using or gaining experience of the method does not make us want to use it, but helps us settle our opinions and it has become a permanent part of our lives.
This method is the only one that displays the distinction of right and wrong. By adopting the method of persistency, you are taking away any doubt in which you might come upon. We adopt whatever beliefs we established a real world, where mankind always be ruled. The other methods do have their importance and truths, but this method is the one that will never change.
The first method is very important and it is an effective method in that it allows for action and decision without hesitation, it is limited by the fact that other people may have different beliefs. After all, it is hard to believe absolutely one thing and deny all other reason when you are surrounded by people who hold different beliefs to be just as true.
To resolve this problem, the second method of authority is formed. This occurs when one large ruling body sets different doctrines and forces everyone under their rule to follow them. Its great strength is in uniting people. When any opposition arrives, they all ensure that they are on the same page and faces everything together.
Even if an authority is successful at destroying all internal opposition, people will see that other authorities practice different doctrines, then they acknowledge that, there might be different answer or something like that, then they will arise one question, “Who is right?”. A third method, a priori account for this. In first two methods, they don’t distinguish between right or wrong method, then this priori helps us to accomplish truth between contrary methods and established a new law related to mankind.
That’s how a complete statement arrived. When we observe the world and derive laws, we assume that our powers of observation are absolutely true and correct. Thus, scientific method helps us to gather correct information. For example: today we know that the makeup of the solar system and universe, and yet only hundreds of years ago did we believe that we are the center of the universe.

Thus, Peirce’s argument deserves a qualification; with the scientific method, we move constantly towards a greater knowledge and more valid opinions based on our ever more accurate perspective of the world.
