Introduction - Baptist Minister Here
Posted: Tue Mar 30, 2021 4:56 pm
Hello all,
I am a semi-retired Baptist minister and (as you can tell from my username) a grandmother. Recently I have been spending some time catching up on philosophy written after the 19th century.
The kind of philosophy I got exposed to in rural Bible College, university and graduate school was the kind that fits well with Protestant theology, and white I always knew that there is more to it than that, it is only recently that I had the time to really get into it.
I didn't have to semi-retire, but I really did want more time to read, and to give a young person with a bunch of new-fangled ideas an opportunity to inflict them on unsuspecting parishioners in rural Appalachia.
My current project is writing a book that explores the common ground between modern philosophy and Protestant theology - whether this is anything more than sheer hubris remains to be seen.
I came across this forum after Googling "epistemological injustice" - didn't see much here about that (Google can be weird that way) but it looked interesting so I thought I would join.
Cheers,
Grandma
