Didn't Newton say " ideas were in the air" ?
Is knowelge Fluid or Constant ?
Can anybody know " anything", with out having been tought ?

i didn't hear it but would not be surprised of it coming from him or einstein.
knowledge is constant because the essence and principles remain the same. ( newton being proven wrong does not term knowledge itself fluid but the perception of knowledge is relative or fluid).
yes by observation but knowledge would be extremely limited.
like mozart? i listen to rap. sorry.

If the abstract word cannot itself be defined in symantics. The notion of 'Knowledge' is varied; ever changing depending on epoch/paradigm shifts. If one cannot define the physical symbol (the words) absolute meaning - then how could one define the concept of knowledge. It is impossible to analyse such a notion when considering that one would have to use the object of analysis itself (knowledge) in order to consider it's properties. Kind of like using a hammer to make a hammer. As for knowing something without being taught? it depends on what disciplary approach you choose. I think you may be reffering to instinctive 'knowledge' but we must consider that even that may have been taught - even though it may have taken thousands of years of evolution for one to learn to know to blink or breathe. Knowing everything is knowing we all know nothing. I think you have a question mark above your head like everyone else.

You should read Rene Descartes
Some "psychics" claim that there is an "ecclesiastic library" or whatever. Its "knowledge" of all the universe of all of time, contained within some mystical world that psychics supposedly tap in to.

Well Newton was disproved by Einstein so I guess that would make it all 'fluid' or perhaps 'relative'.

change is the only thing that is constant, knowledge is both depending
