| | Common sense - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | For instance, it seems impossible to do logic, metaphysics and epistemology without beginning with some assumptions of common sense. | | | Why should we care whether a belief is a matter of common sense or not? | | | Supposing that there are no beliefs we are willing to hold come what may, are there some we ought to hold more stubbornly at least? |

| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Philosophy of Common Sense |
| | The belief in the uniformity of nature, on which all scientific discovery is based, is held by Reid to be an original principle in the mind. | | | James Oswald (l727-1793) made use of Reid's principles in support of religious belief, and James Beattie (1735-1803) in defence of the existence of a moral faculty. | | | The doctrine of ideas, which Locke had adopted from Descartes, had been made use of by Berkeley as the foundation of his theory of pure idealism, which resolved the external world into ideas, without external reality, but directly impressed on the mind by Divine power. |

| | Thomas Paine's Commom Sense - TEXT VERSION |
| | Sincerely wishing, that as men and Christians, ye may always fully and uninterruptedly enjoy every civil and religious right; and be, in your turn, the means of securing it to others; but that the example which ye have unwisely set, of mingling religion with politics, may be disavowed and reprobated by every inhabitant of America. | | | There is something exceedingly ridiculous in the composition of monarchy; it first excludes a man from the means of information, yet empowers him to act in cases where the highest judgment is required. | | | I have heard it asserted by some, that as America hath flourished under her former connection with Great Britain, that the same connection is necessary towards her future happiness, and will always have the same effect. |

| | The First Church of Common Sense Home Page |
| | The First Church of Common Sense is for those who are secure in their beliefs and courageous enough to set about the task of disabusing themselves of the illusions that hold them captive; however, no illusions are offered to replace illusions being shed. | | | The First Church of Common Sense originated as a comic relief to the rigid dogma of so-called "Christianity", with its foul-tempered and capricious bogey-man God. | | | The First Church of Common Sense stems from the belief that the Creator has an incredible sense of humor, as evidenced by the utter folly played out daily all over the Earth. |
