Is Agrippa’s trilemma a diagnosis or a verdict?

Does Agrippa’s trilemma automatically refute every terminus, or is it a diagnostic that still leaves room for a defended ground?

How to read this page

Assembled from sources by the analysis pipeline. Not reviewed, not published as a Library verdict. Used as a diagnostic in Debby’s method. It is not an automatic public verdict against any worldview. This is not a claim that Eastern Orthodoxy — or any other school — has been established as the truth.

Draft research note

This page is a working note, not a settled Library verdict. The question is still open. If you know a source that bears on it — a lecture, an article, a primary text — you can suggest it. A person reads every suggestion before anything is published. Suggestions cannot publish themselves.

The strongest case

The recorded case treats Agrippa's trilemma as a verdict: if a worldview stops, circles, or regresses, it is thereby refuted.

What it still does not settle

In the work on file this is a diagnostic topology, not an automatic score. Each horn has developed defenses, and a terminus label alone does not show a worldview is impossible.
