Proverbs 29:16
**Proverbs 29:16 - Good News Translation (GNT)**
```Dust
<16> When evil people are in power, crime increases. But the righteous will live to see the downfall of such people. ```
Pre-Christian Socrates famously considered himself to be unwise because he considered that ‘he knew nothing’
damn
Catholicism directly supports reason
While criticising people who considered themselves wise for being even less wise for the crime of mistaking themselves wise.
However reason without faith is sin
I refer to Christianity in the broad sense not Catholicism nor did I even mention Catholicism so idk why you're bringing it up but ok
@Eoppa Sorry I didn’t see your message properly, I’ll get to you soon then mate.
Yeah, I don't mean to interrupt I just wanted that out there
@Maksim I’m a Protestant, but I agree with Eoppa, reason in conjunction with faith is important. I also think you’re mistaken in your belief that philosophy makes people believe themselves wise, in accordance with my Socrates example.
Could you expand on your position for me?
I would love to but I have to get to math class
I will respond once this and the next class are out
interesting
That’s cool, take your time
@Simmons ☧ Philosophy still differs from Christian biblical text in a plethora of ways
I’d argue theology itself is a form of philosophy. I still deposit that the phrase “Philosophy is a load of horseshit” is in of itself a philosophical position, albeit a paradoxical one.
@Simmons ☧ Theology is not philosophy
Get to your maths class, it’s more important than me 😂
lol
@Simmons ☧ So.
Theology is not a form of philosophy - it is completely independent regardless of any similar factors
Doubt
1000 doller
@Maksim you seem to assert that philosophy is different than theology in a plethora of ways, can you provide examples?
Theology is divine wisdom
Theology is study of the divine with human wisdom, sociology and such is the study of human wisdom
This is under philosophy
That is not my perception
Philosophy stems from use of logic
Theology stems from use of faith
Imo
I mean logic depends on axioms kept on faith
Theology does the same, logically deduces from religious axioms
