2) CB: "Then there's the problem that reality does contain contradictions.
So,science ought to reflect this fact."

RL: Now that is an a priori assumption you do not justify.

CB: No, it is _a posteriori_. It is based on the experience of past
generations and on my own individual experience. Also, it is not an
assumption. It is a _presumption_, analogous to the legal usage of
"presumption". It is an _a posteriori_ presumption, i.e. a presumption
justified by social and individual experience.

See archives of this list for my debating this issue. I'll dig it up for you
. Main point is you're "_a priori_ assumption" usage, is an exactly wrong
characterization of what I said. Your semantics are exactly wrong.
