The Universality of Intuition; an aposteriori Criticize to an apriori Assumption

Intuition has a central role in philosophy، the role to arbitrating between different opinions. When a philosopher shows that «intuition» supports his view، he thinks this is a good reason for him. In contrast، if we show some contraries between intuition and a theory or some implications of it، we think a replacement or at least some revisions would be needed. There are some well-known examples of this role for intuition in many fields of philosophy; the transplant case in ethics، the chinese nation case in philosophy of mind and the Gettier examples in epistemology. But there is an assumption here; we suppose all people think in same manner، i. e. we think intuition (s) is universal. Experimental philosophy tries to study this assumption experimentally. This project continues Quine's movement to «pursuit of truth» from a naturalistic point of view and making epistemology «as a branch of natural science.» The work of experimental philosophy shows that in many cases people with different cultural backgrounds reflect to some specific moral or epistemological cases –like Gettier examples- differently and thus intuition is not universal. So، many problems that are based on this assumption maybe dissolved، have plural forms for plural cultures or bounded to some specific cultures –western culture in many cases.
