Thanks for responding, but, I haven't the inclination to discuss "what is real?" and "what is really real?" or whether TRUTH exists.
I believe TRUTH can be known, and REVELATION is one way to know. Hey, I like the three other methods of obtaining knowledge that you posted previously as means to determine TRUTH.
Also, Revelation is not Philosophy, either, as you earlier inferred. Philosophies seem to be based upon systems of reasoning, whereas, Revelation seems to not always follow reason.

Of the three methods only mathematics proves a absolute. Philosophy argues for proofs of unknowns but all proofs of philosophy remains argument. Science only explains the evidence of a fact. Proof is not at term used in science. There are 6.7 billion people on earth. No two have ever been observed to be exactly the same. Science accepts that as evidence but not proof of difference. A clone might appear. Revelations are usually inspired by Theological thought and Devinne intervention. It may be accepted by a theology but theology itself is the main branch of philosophy. Revelations revealed to Joseph Smith is accepted as knowledge by Mormons. However most of philosophy would disagree.
