The Problems with Genesis: A Christian Evolutionist's View

I have a different feeling. I think Genesis is a good way for the Creator to communicate to many cultures that human beginnings are rooted in the supernatural.

You can not know Truth.

Ringo, is this a true statement that we can know ?
Or is this a statement the truth of which we cannot know because we cannot know Truth ?

Okay.Was "Truth cannot be known" itself a big T Truth or a little t truth ?Wouldn't you have to be able to observe big T Truth in order to observe that no one can KNOW big T Truth ?How did you observe that big T Truth cannot be known unless you know big T Truth and noticed by observation that no one could apprehend big T Truth?But if you yourself don't know or recognize big T truth, then I think you have to be agnostic about it. It is POSSIBLE that someone knew big T Truth and you didn't realize that this was what was being known.Edited by jaywill, : No reason given.

And this concept you have written is a little t truth or a big T Truth ?I am also not sure if you are saying that discribing how one observed big T Truth and repeatability have to go together.I guess you are saying that one observes big T truth necessarily has to be able to advize the next person how to repeat that experience.This is of course assuming that the second person is interested in having that experience. Upon being advized, for reasons of his own, he may decide to go the other way and not repeat what was claimed to be experienced.I think you are saying there has to be ability to advize on one side.
Perhaps, then there has to be willingness to follow on the other party's part.Edited by jaywill, : No reason given.

Well, I think you are jumping the gun.It is possible that I might not want to know something of the true for reasons of my own.Is that not possible? Make me the culprit here.
What's good for the goose is good for the gander.Maybe you have seen truth. Maybe I don't want it for whatever personal reason. My stubborness to repeat your seeing, I simply am not interested in.I think you have to admit that this is possible of either one of us.
I don't think I am asking you to believe, for example, that non-theists have an exclusive copyright on the ability to be stubburnly uninterested in truth.Your suspicion is understood. However, the matter cuts both ways. What I hear you saying is that the knowing of big T Truth has to be able to be methodologically repeatable to at least SOME people.But if that is true then I think you have to revize the axiom that Truth cannot be known. I think you would have to admit that Truth can be known by something like a jury - a subset of all the people.Am I right ?

Does either statement represent your belief:Big T Truth does not exist ?Or big T Truth exists but no one can know big T Truth ?
