THERE IS MUCH that human beings are, and should be, uncertain about, but this should not include the most basic truths of reality. The effects of postmodern epistemology have widened the sphere of uncertainty in many domains of knowledge, and intellectual uncertainty and excessive skepticism are per...

520 | |a THERE IS MUCH that human beings are, and should be, uncertain about, but this should not include the most basic truths of reality. The effects of postmodern epistemology have widened the sphere of uncertainty in many domains of knowledge, and intellectual uncertainty and excessive skepticism are pervasive in academic circles (both Christian and non-Christian). Such thinking tends to sanction the kind of pragmatic decision making that legitimizes a view of human beings (and moral principles) as mere interchangeable parts with varying utility. This essay offers a critique of obscurant uncertainty and draws attention to the incremental marginalization of God-based knowledge. It calls for the grounding of educational philosophy in a realist conception of truth given that God, our knowledge of Him, and his knowledge of us are an excellent basis by which to ground human institutions (including the institution of education). | ||
