| | How to Corax your Theory of Mind - AlphaPsy |
 | | Greek sophists presented the Corax as a flawed argument, which it is not: it makes perfect sense to assume that one took the consequences of his crime into account before acting, one of the things to be weighed being his reputation and the likeliness of being accused. |
 | | This is only partially true: for the Corax to work, one must not only be suspect, but also be aware, at the time of the crime, that he would be held in suspicion for that crime. |
 | | Likewise, in the case of the corax, you can't attribute to the defendant this infinite regress. |
