Примеры skeptic

• Yet that rhetoric could no longer be deployed so unproblematically, or if it were it could be targeted by skeptics and opponents.

• A numbers skeptic who made binary comparisons of alternatives could prefer (ii) to (iii), and (iii) to (iv), without giving weight to benefit size.

• But why should the size of the benefit, from the same low baseline, matter to the numbers skeptic?

• A skeptic might question why any moral weight should be given to the decisions and preferences of people who have died.

• This provides welcome sharper focus on numerous points, and tempers more radical views of grammaticalization, though it probably will not convince skeptics.

• We also did not believe our descriptions of mice freely climbing about the underside of water filled cages, would pacify the skeptics either.

• In ranking (i) > (ii) > (iii) > (iv), the numbers skeptic rejects inequality that results from distributing the benefit in multiple increments.

• On the other were the skeptics who sometimes openly disparaged science and at other times more cautiously expressed reservations about the scientific enterprise.

• So the numbers skeptic could avoid a preference for (i) over (ii) simply by denying the moral relevance of benefit size.

• Rather, skeptics believe policymakers establish their policy positions on other grounds and evoke analogies for the purposes of persuasion and post hoc justification.

• Legal skeptics maintain, however, that the existence of legal systems and their contents cannot be known by human beings.

• This paper does not attempt to address a skeptic who maintains that there are no true propositions about value.

• It was only as a thorough skeptic that one could easily dispense with the old when a better alternative presented itself.

• Indeed, this appears to be a more plausible basis for a numbers skeptic to rank (ii) > (iii) > (iv).

• In a scientific community of skeptics or pluralists, on the other hand, the net result is just the same.
