Regress argument
The regress argument (also known as the ''diallelus'' (Latin < Greek ''di allelon'' "through or by means of one another")) is a problem in epistemology and, in general, a problem in any situation where a statement has to be justified.〔(Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy )〕〔(Theory of Knowledge )〕〔(University of Reading )〕
According to this argument, any proposition requires a justification. However, any justification itself requires support. This means that any proposition whatsoever can be endlessly (infinitely) questioned.
==Origin==
The argument is usually attributed to Sextus Empiricus, and has been restated by Agrippa as part of what has become known as "Agrippa's trilemma". The argument can be seen as a response to the suggestion in Plato's Theaetetus that knowledge is justified true belief.
