Hi Rog
As you have described them a materialist could not be a combination of both
rationalism and empiricism, because you have them as diametrically opposed. If
reason alone is the source of knowledge, then experience isn't and can't be
combined to be. Besides, Materialism is an ontological
REDEMPTION
i) No redemption.
Below in the Kingdom of Earth,
her firstborn son is gone.
her redemption is lost.
Cain ? She cries out.

Hmm I agree with the spirit of your post. But we never known for

some truth there.
