acatalepsy
Acatalepsy (from the Greek α̉-, privative, and καταλαμβάνειν, to seize), in philosophy, is incomprehensibleness, or the impossibility of comprehending or conceiving a thing. Acatalepsy is the incomprehensibility of all things; the doctrine held by the ancient Skeptic philosophers, that human knowledge never amounts to certainty, but only to probability. 〔acatalepsy. (n.d.) Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary. (1913). Retrieved February 16 2015〕
The Pyrrhonians attempted to show, while Academic skeptics of the Platonic Academy asserted an absolute ''acatalepsia''; all human science or knowledge, according to them, went no further than to appearances and verisimilitude.〔 It is the antithesis of the Stoic doctrine of katalepsis or Apprehension.〔George Henry Lewes, 1863, ''The biographical history of philosophy'', Volume 1, page 297〕 According to the Stoics, katalepsis was true perception, but to the Skeptics, all perceptions were acataleptic, i.e. bore no conformity to the objects perceived, or, if they did bear any conformity, it could never be known.〔
