1	Vet han att han tror? : En studie av Christer Sturmarks kunskapssyn Säteraas, Jörgen January 2017 (has links) The modern swedish atheism is led by Christer Sturmark, chairman of Humanisterna, the swedish humanists. In this essay I study the epistemology of Christer Sturmark to find out on what basis he makes his assumptions about knowledge, faith, belief and his view that scientism is the only way to reach real knowledge. I present a closer historical look at the research about and philosophy of epistemology in general and then I analyze Christer Sturmarks book "Tro och Vetande 3.0 - Upplysning i det 21:a århundradet" and compare the views presented in that book to historical and contemporary philopsohers and religous scholars to extract the epistemology of Christer Sturmark, as it is presented in his book. To gain a more thorough understanding of his epistemolgy, I then compare his view to the swedish churchs´view of God as omnipotent. Finally I present a conclusion about the nature of Christer Sturmarks epistemology, if it is logically consistent and how it relates to the way humans can organize their understanding of the world. religionsfilosofi epistemologi christer sturmark kunskapssyn vet han att han tror philosophy epistemology tro veta vetande nyateism ateism atheism new kunskapsteori kunskap knowledge tro vetande 3.0 upplysning 21:a århundradet Philosophy Filosofi
