Validation

#philosophy

“Validation” is a broader concept than “proof” that refers to any process of establishing an idea’s relationship to reality, whether it be deduction, induction, or perceptual self-evidence. Axioms fall under this third category: they are validated by direct sense perception, and they cannot be coherently denied.
