    think Kant.. the man who bound the two rivaling ideologies together..

    how can one prove the existence of god if they cannot completely prove the existence of their own reality.. if god transcends us then how can we even begin to talk about the who, what, where, when, and why of the situation..
    Yes!

    think synthetic a priori... logic is empty without empiricisim, empiricsm is faulty without logic...

    seems u know a thing or two about theology and philosophy.. refreshing...
    Kant was an idiot. He screwed up philosophy for centuries, and opened the way for all those ridiculous post-Enlightenment philosophers.

    But I completely agree with you! Epistemology HAS to be the foundation of any solid philosophy, metaphysics, or theology! I never understood why people don't get that.

    I guess what I was trying to ask in my previous post was your particular epistemology. Empiricist? Now it seems Kantian?

    Empiricism is garbage, too. No offense. But any critical realist will make short work of an empiricist, simply because our external senses are not our only gateway to reality.
