Kinda sounds like a "Zen & the art of motorcycle maintenance"
thing.
Bill: This is what the search engine turned up for Mars Hill. Imagine
others having to interpret what he was talking
about? "For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man
which is in him?" (1 Cor 2:11). I notice your theologian Torrance is one of
Polanyi's interpreters. IMO time would be better spent on the
following:
"Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of
man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him; but God hath
revealed them unto us by his Spirit; for the Spirit searcheth all things,
yea, the deep things of God" (1 Cor 2:9,10). So what new thing can
Polanyi come up with that God is unaware of? judyt
Tacit Knowing, Truthful Knowing: The Life and
Thought of Michael Polanyi
Though largely ignored, the work of research
chemist-turned-philosopher Michael Polanyi (1891-1976) offers rich
insight into the methods of science, the role of belief in all human
knowing, and the important connections between knowledge and responsibility.
Tacit Knowing, Truthful Knowing explores Michael Polanyi's criticisms
of both objectivism and subjectivism, and his attempts to develop a more
truthful understanding of how we know the world. His ideas are based on the
belief that all knowledge is either tacit (silent and unspoken) or rooted in
tacit knowledge.
This two and one-half hour program (on two audio cassettes) features interviews with leading interpreters of Polanyi's
thought, including Marjorie Grene, Richard Gelwick, Thomas Torrance, and Martin Moleski. Interviews with
Nobel Prize-winning chemist Dudley Herschbach, educator Steven Garber, and
master violin makers Peter and Wendy Moes, along with readings from Michael
Polanyi's books and correspondence, further illuminate his ideas. On two
cassettes.
