- MontagFTB 2y agoWho is to say Christians didn’t use their discernment to conclude that Jesus is who he claimed and did what was said of him?
- amazingman 2y agoAnyone paying even casual attention to the epistemology of Christians.
- bigstrat2003 2y agoI'll certainly admit lots of Christians have bad epistemology, because frankly lots of people do in general. But there are also lots of people who have thought about this very seriously, contrary to your claim.
- amazingman 2y agoI'm sure there are. But if they ended up confirming belief in a magic carpenter born of a virgin, then we're back to bad epistemology.
- freshpretzels 2y agoNot all contexts are equally valid or equally believable. Some of them disqualify themselves pretty quickly.
