I gave this discussion that title because the software I use to post to the web requires one and because I couldn’t think of a good title. The lesson is only sort of about Epistemology, its really a totally disorganized mish mash of several ideas that I hope will become coherent the more I write and as we discuss our text.
Our text is the same as last Sunday, but whereas our discussion was previously organized around the topic of “Glory”, this week I’d like to organize our discussion of John 17 around the topic of Knowledge. So why the big word?
Epistemology is that branch of philosophy (ugh) that concerns itself with knowledge. How do we know what we know? What are the limits of knowledge? Does it exist at all? What is real and how do we know it? Is anything real?
