A philosopher is a blind man in a dark room
looking for a black cat that isn’t there.
A theologian is the man who finds it.H.L. Mencken
A philosopher claims to look and a theologian claims to find, but neither is engaged in the seeking or finding of truth. They can’t be, because then they’d be total morons, unable to find the only thing that can never be lost. As tempting as it might be to believe that juveniles are mentally deficient or defective, they’re anything but. We are, at that stage, weak thinkers, not weak-minded.
