To some extent, there is no a priori knowledge about opium. You have to start any reasoning process about opium from the existing knowledge of what it is and how it effects us.
Just like all knowledge, as Aquinas and Aristotle assert, begins with sense data. This does not mean there is not a priori reasoning whatsoever; it just means that, by the fact that human nature is both spiritual and corporeal, we must interact with the world through our senses in order to have objects for our reasoning.

Just like all knowledge, as Aquinas and Aristotle assert, begins with sense data. This does not mean there is not *a priori* reasoning whatsoever; it just means that, by the fact that human nature is both spiritual and corporeal, we must interact with the world through our senses in order to have objects for our reasoning.
