How can the human mind relate to the eternal mind of God outside of religion? Can man discover God’s mind through his own mind? Can and should such knowledge be acquired and communicated through ordinary human means, or is it so impracticable that it can only be discovered and expressed in a trance of ecstasy by way of revelation? Those are some of the questions that St. Irenaeus addressed in the last two books of his master work: Against Heresies.
