Defining and Conceptualizing the Concepts of Faith and Knowledge
Question
What is the definition of the concept of “faith / belief”?
What is the relationship between that and the definition of the concept of “knowledge”?
Answer
In my view, it is exactly the same thing. Faith / belief is a product of our intuition, which gives us principles that are not based on prior principles (first principles). To believe means to know. I discussed this at length at the beginning of the first book in the trilogy, and elsewhere.
