Section 3: PHILOSOPHY

Philosophy may be defined as the study of and search after wisdom. I used to think philosophy was only to be understood by a few (esoteric) and therefore unimportant and minor when considered next to everyday life. But then I found out that philosophy is the use of clear and sensible (rational) investigation of the truths and principles of being, knowledge, and conduct. To me, this means that philosophy is not something I would study instead of everyday life; the study of philosophy is the study of everyday life.

In this section we will 1) Raise the questions people ask about truth, being, knowledge, and conduct. 2) Discuss the philosophical questions that arise in the Christian life; 3) Provide reasons which ground Christian thought concerning these questions; and, 4) we will answer the questions raised.
