| One of consumers' favorite justifiers for home decorating purchases is that a particular item has worn out and needs to be replaced. |
|
| Hence, if being justified implies having justified, then being justified implies that one can be aware of the justifiers. |
|
| And perhaps, for any justified belief and accompanying justifiers, one can become aware of the justifiers, and do this merely by reflection. |
|
| In a sense we can take some solace these days from the fact that the enablers and justifiers of torture seem more and more isolated and embattled. |
|
| These items of evidence or reasons offered in the act of justifying, we may say, are the justifiers for the belief in question. |
|
| So, mentalism but not PI is perfectly compatible with a view that says that sensory states that are themselves not beliefs and not things that can be appropriately said to be justified can nonetheless function as justifiers. |
|
| Instead, we can say this: The justifiers for a given justified belief are those items that make up or constitute the person's justification for that belief at that time. |
