Abstract

This text explores the role of philosophy in Christian education, emphasizing the need for humility and historical awareness. It distinguishes between different senses of philosophy, including a sociological sense and a sapiential sense. The article discusses the historical development of philosophy and its narrowing scope in modern times. It argues for a balanced and humble approach to philosophy in Christian education, highlighting the importance of integrating philosophy with theology. The text also explores the relationship between philosophy and Christianity, discussing the challenges faced by philosophy in the modern world and the role of philosophy as a handmaiden to sacred doctrine. It concludes by emphasizing the practical ethical question of wisdom and the Christian belief in living knowingly and lovingly as creatures of God. [Extracted from the article]
