I will try. There is no such a thing as knowledge or knowing. All we have
are considerations (I borrowed this word from JR Saul - I think it is a
very powerful word). These can be thought of as understandings which are
relative (hence not absolute) and relational (revealing not telling as it
is).
I have another challenge:-) What are questions? How can one define
questions in a way that is epistemologically revealing?
