Davidson can say, without any attempt at anticipating the end of inquiry and blocking Putnam’s skeptical “meta-induction,” that most of our beliefs are true. This claim follows from his claim that we cannot understand the suggestion that most of them are false—a suggestion which has sense only when backed up with the phony notion of an “alternative, untranslatable, conceptual scheme.”
