Episode notes
Modern Knowledge Limitations
- Modern knowledge prioritizes demonstrable proof, often neglecting other valid ways of knowing.
- This limits understanding, as some knowledge is gained through testimony and perspective.
Ancient Knowledge Types
- 'Episteme' (science) was a narrow knowledge type in the ancient world, demonstrable and provable.
- 'Doxa' encompassed other knowledge, established through testimony and perspective, not proof.
Courtroom Doxa
- Fr. DeYoung gives an example of a court case where expert testimony is challenged by the defense.
- This highlights how interpretation and perspective (doxa) still play a role, even with scientific evidence.
