Zusammenfassung: | In an earlier paper, I presented a novel objection to closure-based skeptical arguments. There I argued that the best account of what makes skeptical scenarios effective cripples the closure-based skeptical arguments that use those scenarios.

Here I review my original argument, criticize their replies, and highlight two important issues for further investigation. |
