Other: Empiricists about knowledge like to claim that knowledge is due to sensory experience, while rationalists claim it to be intrinsic a priori. I see knowledge as an active process of updating: it’s heavily laden with sensory experiences but you need some starting state, and I think that starting state is an implicit part of your knowledge. The two aren’t separable.
That depends on the Rationalist (Spinoza arguably denies this in his idealism, and one could argue that Plato is a rationalist who believes that all knowledge is a priori.) but the point here is that I think that knowledge always has an empirical part and a rational part.
In other words, I reject the a priori/a posteriori demarcation.

Rationalists claim that some but not all knowledge is a priori. So I think your position might be rationalism.
