Knowledge is relational....

This statement is an absolute, which is dependent upon "Epistemology." So, if what you say is true, then this statement is invalid, since all knowledge is "relational" and the knowledge about "Knowledge is relational" is also relational. Your premise refutes itself.

Oh fiddle dee dee -- because the relationality of knowledge need not occur soley within a closed loop physical universe. (But of course, you've heard that over and over again, so this is an exercise in our amusement.) In fact, lean closer... I'm told by the source of all, with whom all is either aptly related or dead, that none of us occur solely within a closed loop physical universe. That source Himself is The Premise of course, not that "all knowldedge is relational." All knowledge is simply, like everything else, an effect of what is (or has been) related to God.

I can't take credit for my premise; you do me much too much honor, LW, no, please don't worship me....

Neither do I suggest that one imposes the rules of {the order he knows} upon that which very effectively demonstrates that He has fashioned the place we call "order" and as is His want, sets His feet upon that stool. You can ask Him about it, though.

Forgive my metaphor if you will, FRiend.

Hi everybody... though our "tongues will cease," apparently our thinking goes on.

Thank you so very much for the ping to your excellent post!

Beautiful, unspun! So very true.
