[QUOTE="2PhiloVoid, post: 77181060, member: 167101"] Oh? Me too. Maybe not in an epistemically identical form, but ... me too. That's the bittersweet nature of the relation between the actual Past and human attempts to represent it with limited human investigation and writing. It's a mess that sits squarely in the area of the Philosophy of History (one that a lot of folks utterly ignore). Oh, again. You and me, both! But even yet again, what's sauce for one side of the fence is also sauce for the other side, too. That's a position that I know a lot of people fervently wish would manifest itself as a textured, felt experience with God, but I decline from expecting much if anything in the way of a 'direct revelation.' It's better to take Christianity on the epistemic low....it's less existentially nauseating that way. [/QUOTE]
