Bernard Lonergans filosofiska teologi
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This article deals with the theory of knowledge of God elaborated by the Canadian theologian and philosopher Bernard Lonergan. Its main aim is to present Lonergan’s theory and to discuss whether it is foundationalist in character or not. The first part of the article introduces the reader into the discussion about foundationalism in contemporary philosophy, especially with regard to the field of philosophy of religion. In the article’s second part Lonergan’s theory of how to ground knowledge of God is being presented, along with its connection to Lonergan’s general cognitional theory. Lonergan’s fourfold God-question and its relationship to the distinction between natural and supernatural knowledge of God is also elucidated. The concluding part of the article shows why Lonergan’s philosophy of God is not a version of foundationalism in its proper sense, since Lonergan rejects the foundationalist attribution of epistemic primacy to propositional entities, and instead places his epistemic foundations in a set of intentional operations of the human mind.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
