  • Need Help to write Paper

    Yeah, I'm writing a paper about how personal experience is the most trustworthy of all sources
    Trustworthy is defined as 'most accurate and true'

    I have two statements and need a third
    Here is what I have

    Personal experience is the most trustworthy because a person has the chance to see it, or build it, or learn it all without any other person’s bias. Another reason that personal experience if the most trustworthy of all sources is because to learn anything practical, you need to do it yourself. Finally, it is most trustworthy because ....

    Could you guys give me a third?

      Talk about how it is most accurate but since no one can be every where at once we must trust other sources. Also mention how personal experience only matters if you understand what is going on; for instance if you've no knowledge of medicine and your trying to deliver a baby then second hand info is probably more accurate then anything you've personally experienced.

        Well

        I would say you could trust yourself in a lot of situations as most trustworthy, if you wern't:

        #1-cynical

        #2-blinded by self ambition

        #3-were able to sift through what may not be true representation of facts at hands

        #4-prejudice to the point of ignorance

        #5-open to as yet undefined possibilities


        These are a few points to ponder.

        The reason I bring this up is the human eye "See's" something and it suggests the rest to its mind. In a traffic accident or possibly a crime scene, even a sporting event, a person "swears-on-a-stack-of-Bibles" they saw or heard something. Truth comes out that they only "Thought" but in all actuallity did not see what they processed.

        Another point, you walk into a room, hear someone say that "I shot him dead, and he deserved it, I am glad", a few days later that man is arrested for a connection to a homicide. You say "Man, I heard him admit it!" But what actually you heard was the end of the sentence, he was actually saying to someone"I was over at Bob's house, he was drunk and running his mouth to me, stating over and over, I shot him dead, and he deserved it, I am glad"

        Now, the man stated both sentences, but you only heard part. Tell me, should you trust yourself with everything you hear?

            To answer your question, "...it is most direct. Only personal exeprience is firsthand experience."

              Relying on personal experience minimizes the number of assumptions you make.
