I've raised arguments for philosophical scepticism before, which have mostly been argued against in a Popper-esque manner of arguing that even if we don't know anything with certainty, we can have legitimate knowledge on probabilities.
The problem with this, however, is how you answer a sceptic about the notion of probability having a correlation with reality. Probability depends upon axioms of probability- how are said axioms to be justified? It can't be by definition, or it has no correlation to reality.
This now has 90 comments, including 2 of my own. None of them are particularly enlightening, IMO, but this is still evidence that it's interesting or amusing. As such, I've retracted my downvote.
