A child should understand epistemology. There is too much noise, too much complication, too much verbiage in philosophy. And theology is no better. Nietzsche got it right when he talked about the will to power of most priests and philosophers. They like to dazzle the hell out of us. But the truth is what we want. And the truth is a real object, and not merely a definition.

A child should understand epistemology
God exists as you and I exist, not merely as your “idea” of me. The abstract is the abstract. Definition is not real, it is the shadow of the form, under the shade of the tree of form.
A child should understand epistemology. There is too much noise, too much complication, too much verbiage in philosophy. And theology is no better. Nietzsche got it right when he talked about the will to power of most priests and philosophers. They like to dazzle the hell out of us. But the truth is what we want. And the truth is a real object, and not merely a definition.
