Rationalism and Empiricism
Kant and Hume agree on something and that is when kant draws the idea that pure reason is capable of significant knowledge but rejects the idea that pure reason can tell us anything about things in themselves. From empiricism, he draws the idea that knowledge is essentially knowledge from experience but rejects the idea that we can have no necessary and universal truths from experience.

i believe that is false we can gain great truth and knowledge from experience for example the hot pan idea. its universal because you realize that if u touch anything that has been on the stove just recently u'll get burned so you try not to do it anywhere
I Agree with you . Great knowledge comes from experince
