153. "what do you consider things that are perceived, but do not qualify as knowledge?"
I really have little idea you are even babbling about with that question. I recognize some knowledge as being subjective. If there are 100 skeptic scotts standing outside, and they all see a purple hippo fly by and no one else does, then 100 skeptic scotts have perceived a purple hippo. The knowledge of that purple hippo is totally subjective to the skeptic scotts. No one else saw the hippo. Definitely not objective. Cannot be proven. No other evidence. But, nonetheless perceived and empirically proven ONLY to the skeptic scotts.
