Neither do you. @Sentient23
Tell us exactly what you think faith means?
I do lol
If you're so sure we don't know
Then tell us
And how do you know that I do not?
Google it
@Koninos he's not google
Just because Google says something doesn't mean it's what he thinks
I'm asking for his definition
His definition of faith? Since when can one create his own definition for something?
Most of the times the definition would be wrong.
Stick to the official ones, no need for new ones.
He's saying I don't know what it means
And when he says faith or tells me I don't know what it means it means he thinks it means something
@Sentient23 Are you going to tell us what your epic definition of faith is?
"But as a science of faith it seeks by human reason to penetrate the content and the context of the supernatural system of truth and to understand this as far as possible. St. Augustine expresses this thought in the words: “Crede, ut intelligas†Believe that you may understand (Sermo 43, 7, 9); St. Anselm of Canterbury, with the words: “Fides quaerens intellectum†Faith seeking to reach the intellect (Proslogion, Proemium) and: “Credo, ut intelligam†I believe that I may understand (Proslogion I); Richard of St. Victor with the words: “Properemus de fide ad cognitionem. Satagamus, in quantum possumus, ut intelligamus, quod credimus†(De Trinitate, Prologus). Let us hasten from faith to knowledge. Let us endeavour so far as we can, to understand that which we believe"
His idea of what it means is relevant
From "Foundations of Catholic Dogma"
Why should we believe that?
Believe what?
Quotes which use the word faith
The meaning of faith
What does faith mean when you say it?
No russian
What do you mean by faith?
That quote provides the definition of faith
What do I misunderstand?
@GlobalDelete because its a theological word we use to describe something we experience, therefore u cannot define it for us
its like be defining science as "worship of satan"
it would be ridiculous
@A Russian Bad Actor Did you even bother reading what i sent?
It is though, ngl
According to who?
I don't see a definition in there
I read it
I must be blind
"it seeks by human reason to penetrate the content and the context of the supernatural system of truth and to understand this as far as possible"
Can you just tell me?
It wouldn't be very ridiculous from the perspective of the person defining it
