On religious knowledge

Platovnjak, Ivan (author), Mutanen, Arto (author)

The paper is a philosophical analysis of religious knowledge. The article examines religious knowledge by comparing it to scientific and mathematical knowledge as well as moral knowledge. Scientific knowledge is based on perceptions, whether these are direct perceptions or perceptions produced by a scientific experiment. We analyze religious perception by comparing it to perceptions in science and in moral epistemology in which perceptions are called moral perceptions. In moral epistemology and religious epistemology, the interpretation of perceptions takes place in a certain atmosphere which is not static and given but developing. All these perceptions have a similar methodical role in knowledge acquisition. The paper gives a methodical-conceptual analysis of religious knowledge, but at the same, it shows that the real option is the path of permanent discipleship.

Abstract

Za vernika je vera v Boga trden temelj življenja. S filozofskega vidika je pomembno temelje verovanja sistematično proučiti. V prispevku sta avtorja opravila filozofsko analizo verskega védenja. Versko percepcijo sta analizirala tako, da sta jo primerjala s percepcijami v znanosti in moralni epistemologiji – v tej se imenujejo moralne percepcije. V moralni in religiozni epistemologiji njihova razlaga poteka v določeni atmosferi, ki ni statična in dana, temveč se razvija. Vse te percepcije imajo pri pridobivanju védenja podobno metodično vlogo. Na koncu metodično-konceptualne analize verskega védenja sta avtorja pokazala, da je prava možnost pot trajnega učenčevstva.
