this is elementary
Kant (Scruton): "Neither experience nor reason is alone able to provide knowledge. The first provides content without form, the second form without content. Only in their synthesis is knowledge possible; hence there is no knowledge that does not [partake of both]." @SamHarrisOrg

What's the point? Sam obviously agrees with both reason and experience as sources of knowledge. It's an implicit strawman.

Well it depends on what you mean by "Kant"...

Good to see you are developing your knowledge in philosophy
@jordanbpeterson. It will ground your ideas in metaphysics rather than mere pragmatism

He needs it. Psychology is nothing compared to philosophy.

That would make sense, though I suspect there is even more to it than that. The fundamental archetypes are also a great source of knowledge that might transcend both experience and reason.
-
Where does knowledge of the "archetypes" come from? Reason? Experience?

I think you just triggered half of the pseudo-intellectuals and faux philosophers of our age. And a few epistemologists. And a bunch of jerk offs that think Kant is irrelevant (he had a profound impact on Nietzsche).

I don’t know what you mean by ‘Profound Impact’, because Nietzsche bitterly disliked Kant and had a low opinion of him. He took pains to avoid and circumvent Kant’s theories that hobbled his. You take preference in ad hominem. And that word, ‘triggered’, is shamefully unacademic.
