Three branches and all that

I don't think the belief of the heart has a conscious denial of other things. That is the rationalisation of the mind, probably after it is questioned by itself or others.

Also I wouldn't endow philosophy to any group, how I see it is that it's a practice of reasoning by logic, in it's current form at least.

Well, specifically, I had Catholicism in mind, who rely on Aristotlean logic. I am aware other faiths have different kinds of logic, like from India.

9/10 when a westerner refers to logic they mean they Aristotlean kind.

I see where you're coming from, true.

In reality, we don't really know for sure how the tapestry of religion works in relation to the Truth. The best practice, according to Palamism, is to rely on revelation of the heart, which is the only chance for having knowledge (of a kind) about God.

Logic always falls short.

By extension, when scholars suggest that revelation has no basis in reason, they are in a way partly correct and partly incorrect. It is only an estimation of their behalf. Whether or not it is True or not, is not known. Reality exists beyond reason.

It seems prayer, in this context, is an attempt to connect and witness the Truth, where no other avenues are avaliable.

It is deeply unscientific, but in a way this is also a strength because it opens up the possibility the lies beyond logical deductions.

From what I can gather, Palamism follows the idealism approach for reasoning, although I need further reading on the matter.

Will definitely work on that.

Whether it is provable or not is really not a relevant question. It is only verifiable, if you could call it that, according to intuition.

Islam is a spook. Much like religion as a whole.

The fuck did I walk into

@ZipZapZack What did you mean by this?

its really a strange place

render unto Caesar

Ah, the distinct smell of utter shitposting

Always a pleasure

is that a screen from age of empires as your avatar

It's a very autistic place which lacks the ability to harness that autism to turn it into weaponised autism. In other words, this place is just shitpost central for me.

When I'm bored.

damn right

you have the right idea

Then again, I'm not a leftist, I just like to talk to lefties once in awhile without actually talking about politics. It's fun to just be social, and put politics aside for awhile.

if you have a hentai avatar you deserve to get the shit beaten out of you with a tree branch

and soon we hope to capture the land know as california but for now we rest come lets see to the burning of the dead

The first mistaken of edgelords is to assume /leftypol/ is actually populated by leftists.

So this is like the actual left?

Or is this the pretends to be the actual left
