10. Modality / D. Knowledge of Modality / 4. Conceivable as Possible / c. Possible but inconceivable

3903	The conceivable can't be a test of the possible, if there are things which are possible but inconceivable [Scruton]
	Full Idea: If there are things which are possible but inconceivable, we must abandon the view, which has had a considerable following since Descartes, that the conceivable is a test of the possible.
	From: Roger Scruton (Modern Philosophy:introduction and survey [1994], 25)
