    Challenges→Omniscience could be better understood by appealing to forms of knowledge beyond propositional knowledge, such as knowing other people in personal relationships, the centrality of care, and the role of emotion in leading to knowledge.

    Key Terms

    Divine cognition(Chatton's threefold characterization of how God cognizes)
    A mode of awareness that is (1) non-judgmental and non-voluntaristic, (2) not necessarily of determinate existents, and (3) complete, non-discursive, and direct
    Epistemic practices(as used in epistemology (the study of knowledge))
    The methods and habits we use to gain knowledge and figure out what's true—like observation, reasoning, or asking experts.
    Feminist standpoint epistemology(as a philosophical school)
    A theory arguing that people from marginalized or oppressed groups have special insight into how power works because of their lived experience outside the dominant system.
    Ontological
    "Ontological" refers to questions about what actually exists or is real. It's concerned with the fundamental nature of being—asking "What kinds of things are there?" rather than "How do we know about them?" For example, an ontological question might be whether numbers, ideas, or God actually exist as real things, or if they're just human inventions.
