What is truth?
I go with Nietzsche and think that philosophers seeking the absolute truth are actually influenced by Christianity.
- vehemenz 6y agoBy adding "absolute" to "truth," you seem to be alluding to (but not stating) a non-deflationary account of truth that OP almost certainly does not believe. Second, what does Christianity have to do with anything? Was Aristotle influenced by Christianity?
- randomNumber7 6y agoIt might be poorly worded but OP's comment sounds very absolute about this to me. > Second, what does Christianity have to do with anything? The way Kant tries to base his theories on axioms is similar to what some theologians did.
- Koshkin 6y agoYes, there is something deeply common between theology and philosophy: the former studies that which does not exist, while the latter is seeking the answers to questions to which there are none.
