Today we are dealing with the phenomenon of defining knowledge as a form of acquaintance, which consists in reaching the maximum amount of knowledge and information about things, events, phenomena or people. This set of provable, verifiable indications would constitute, in the broad sense of the word, a definition of knowledge, limited however at this point only to the intellectual and theoretical plane. When it comes to theological knowledge that concerns God, knowledge requires first of all a personal encounter and a living interpersonal relationship implying reason, freedom, feelings, mutual dialogue, etc. Knowledge proper to the human world means, as Pope Benedict XVI said, adopting the concept of “extended reason”, enriched by experience and the whole of the human being. It is not limited to pure theoretical knowledge, but involves the whole person and defines their relationship with “the You” whom they meet.
