What is A Priori vs A Posteriori Explained about?

A priori truths are necessarily true based on definitions alone, without need for sense experience, such as "All bachelors are unmarried". A posteriori truths are empirically true based on sense experience, like hearing a confession, but are contingently true if senses could be deceived. A priori thinking uses deductive reasoning from definitions to reach certain conclusions, while a posteriori thinking uses inductive reasoning from specific observations to form general laws.
