Why Alston's Mystical Doxastic Practice Is Subjective |
 | | But Alston seems unaware that there is trouble in River City judging by his unintended humorous remark at the end of his account of M-experiences as perceptual, "So far so good," and his overlooking this problem in all of his many later efforts to neutralize challenges to MPs being a reliable objective DP. |
 | | If Alston means to take their word for it, then he is, in effect, adding a further condition to his above analysis so that it is also necessary that S takes the state of consciousness to be perceptual. |
 | | Alston frankly admits that this disanalogy "shows that CMP (the Christian MP) is epistemically inferior to SP," but not so much as to show that the belief outputs of an MP are not prima facie justified. |
