@Pawelotti Oops. I wasn't clear. I meant if you want to understand (Western) culture, you've got to know about religion. -
@PhilosophyExp Question for you, if I may: is system of syllogistic logic knowledge? Have reason for asking, will blog@Pawelotti -
@Gurdur Sorry Tim, but that question is well beyond my competence level, so any answer I gave would be... well, worthless really! :) -
@PhilosophyExp please pardon my question. Have been considering what constitutes knowledge; e.g. is logic a form of knowledge? -
@Gurdur Question is a good one, it's just I'm making an effort not to sound off about things about which I know nothing. It's a struggle! :) -
@PhilosophyExp sorry to be a hassle. Just that question has bearing on your previous conversation, prompted me, since was on my mind anyway
