>The fact that philosophy still admits "divine revelation" is exactly one of the reasons why it's outdated
I didn't say that. Re-read the post. I said
>It's the only way of finding truth, be it from metaphysical deduction or abductive/inductive inference such as that of the scientific method, which is an epistemilogic pursuit and falls in the philosophic category of epistemology
I said you could APPEAL to divine revelation, but this would be a personal and subjective thing and would be a belief. And if you don't understand that the scientific pursuit and it's revealed content are epistemological in nature and therefore part of the branch of philosophy called epistemology, then you don't understand what either philosophy OR science are. Science was called natural philosophy from time immemorial (picrel) until, because of political reasons, it was changed to 'science'. Some people, such as the vienna school jews and their predecessors wanted to separate meta-physics from the epistemic practice of empirical investigation.
