Epistemology and Mormonism -- what is truth?

In this video, Dan joins us to talk about epistemology! Epistemology is a fancy word for determining what is belief, justified belief, and knowledge. Ultimately, it's how we determine what is true. Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (otherwise known as the Mormon Church or the LDS Church) are sometimes accused of being 'brainwashed,' yet Dan illustrates the ways in which we come to discover what is true for ourselves. Have you ever wondered if what you believe is actually true or if you're just convincing yourself of its validity? When discovering truths, we will (and should) frequently question our methods by which we are determining what is true. In this episode, Dan lays out the important methods by which we can determine truth by using an example of a courtroom. He says that each method (each person on the jury) shouldn't be neglected (that each should have a seat at the table) because of the impact they have on our thought processes to determine truth. A few of the 'seats' include: Logic, Witness Testimony, Intuition, Ecclesiastical Authority, Personal Revelation, Beauty, Scholarly Authority, and Experience. From the list that Dan talks about, what do you use most to determine your truth? Let us know in the comments below!
