The only issue I do have with my understanding of Empiricism is how it seems to claim that one cannot rightly discuss what he has yet to experience. To me this diminishes any idea of one's creativity or imagination.

Knowledge Based On Senses
Reflecting upon Empiricism, I begin to strongly connect with the notion that all of one's knowledge based on the use of senses. In order for one to receive any type of information which translates into knowledge, we have to have an experience that presents it to us. From valuable skills to simply studying about Empiricism, we as individuals have to use at least our sense of sight to inherit the information. For one to fully be aware of this knowledge, it must be fully experienced through their senses.

Perhaps mathematical or logical knowledge is a bit harder to explain for empiricism, as these forms of knowledge seem to be universal and necessarily true
