Is knowledge the enemy of faith? (My response)

[Dywyddyr]

Uh, your faith is god?
Or your faith is in god?

Our faith is God, Gods faith is in us.

 

[Dywyddyr]

I already explained twice, now a third. Faith is knowledge.

Um, no. A claim is not an explanation.
Especially when that claim is false.

In fact your claim is a pretty good refutation in and of itself of the claim.
You have faith that you know it's true (i.e. knowledge) whereas you are, in fact, wrong. Therefore it's not knowledge.

Faith is knowledge

Our faith is God

Grammatically null.
And somewhat disturbing from a psychological point of view.

Our faith is God if you allow it.

One more time: no.
Repeating an incorrect statement does not make it any less incorrect.
Get a dictionary. Read it. (Or get someone clever to read it to you).
Faith, by definition is not knowledge.

No, it's the opposite.

 

[NMSquirrel]

so was the bible..

 

[SciWriter]

Faith is knowledge.

Your faith is a hope that there is God because that is what you want. This wish is not knowledge of God.

 

[Dywyddyr]

The dictionary was written by man

Oh right.
So you get your defintions from... where?

PS you're forgetting that words were also invented by man.

Define "faith" for me.
Define "knowledge".

You don't know me and you don't know my faith.

 

[NMSquirrel]

You don't know me and you don't know my faith.

in dyw's case (and to the extent i agree with) he is making sure that YOU know what your faith is.

 

[SciWriter]

You don't know me and you don't know my faith.

Faith is never knowledge, but unknowledge, a hope for an unknown to be real.

 

[Me-Ki-Gal]

Faith is never knowledge, but unknowledge, a hope for an unknown to be real.

Like a Pharaohs wish . We wish for the future prosperity and of better things to come , but the wish is only a part of an equation . You got to do the things based in reality with knowledge to bring the wish to bare . It is not real until we make it real . Dwy should know this well being an inventor . You visualize all the aspects by reason and then and only then you go build the damn thing . Except Me ! Sometimes I shoot from the hip . Builders got cover engineers asses sometimes . They say Call Me if you got any changes . When I do they have a habit of saying Oh Fuck don't do it like I drew it , or been known to say if you got a rabbit in your hat now is the time to pull it out. Yeah O.K. then .

 

[Dywyddyr]

Dwy should know this well being an inventor.

Design engineer!
"Inventor" always implies someone on the verge of crankdom.

Faith is the knowledge of faith.

Meaningless drivel.
