NICOLAE V. DURĂ* From “Pro Philosophia” to Nietzschek thinking. Some considera ons as philosophical knowledge is concerned** The opinion that the theologian can only come to a „second-hand~ Philosophy has not yet vanished from the environment of Philosophers, just as the idea that the philosopher put his ideas forward on some ma ers „in a preven ve manner~1 has not vanished from the theological environment. But, if mutual mistrust persists, what can one do?! In our opinion, we should fi rst of all acquire the knowledge in both fi elds, id est the philosophical and theological fi elds, and only a erwards may we righ ully express our opinion in this regard. In addi on, we should know very well what philosophers say about Theology and what the theologians say about Philosophy. That is why, within the pages of this study, we evaluated in a „sine ira et studio~ manner both the opinions of some philosophers and the ones of some theologians with regard to Philosophy and Theology and, ipso facto, to their contribu on as knowledge is concerned. In line with Plato`s advice, the ones who deal „with Philosophy~ should not only limit themselves to „thoughts and opinions~, which are nothing but „verbal skills not worth being listened to and nothing authen c or that pertain to any sound thinking~,2 but strive to contemplate the essence, namely that „summa ra o~ or „ὁ ὀρθος λόγος~, „that was born before all ages (quae saeculis omnibus ante nata est)~,3 that St. John the Evangelist simply refers to as „Ὁ Λογος~ (the Word), as the Word was in the beginning and „the Word (Logos) was with God, and the Word was God.~ (John I, 1). The same philosopher, who lived in the V-th century before Christ, iden fi ed this knowledge with „Theology~, that is with „… the science of what will be forever …~,4 and, in * Ovidius University of Constanta (Romania) and Member of the Academy of Romanian Scien sts ** Academical Lecture held on 14th May 2015, with the occasion of the awarding the tle of D.H.C. by the University „Ivane Javakhishvili” of Tbilisi (Georgia). 1 See, Iacob Iţhac Niemirower, Iudaismul (Judaism), Hasefer Publ.

This is „the stain~ – A. Cornea wrote – that the philosopher refers to and that has nothing to do with mere oblivion~.3 In this respect, carelessness towards the Spirit (soul) is the result of faithlessness and if we do not take „Faith~ seriously, we cannot cross „the river of Lethe~, that is the treshhold of earthly existence to the one of eternity, for which we also need – according to the teaching of Jesus Christ our Saviour – „knowledge~ (In. 17, 3). In fact, according to the Gospel, the achievement of „eternal life~ is condi oned in a „sine qua non~ manner by knowing the Real God and,
