“Limits to what is intelligible to humans”

by the limits to what there is.
For instance the TRINITY or the knowledge of GOD
- But at least we could go on finding out more and more reality until there was nothing left to find
out, by the help of our senses
- Locke secularized the universal realization among medieval Philosophers

9. “Limits to what is possible for humans to apprehend, in which case there might be aspect of
reality which humans can never know or understand”
“If, he thought, we could analyze our own mental faculties and find out what are capable, and what
are not capable of dealing with, we should have discovered the limits of what is knowable by us,
regardless of what happens to exist externally to ourselves. No matter how much (or little) exists
over and above what is apprehensible to us , it will have no way of getting through to us.”
