In my view, the principle limitations in human thought concern
panlogism; stemming of course from distinct ratiocinations of the
mammalian species, clearly demonstrated by higher primate intellectual
development, all of which is promulgated by the style of teaching at the
college level, and in general the pedagogical nature of academia itself,
particularly that of European root. In short, the ends are affected by
the mean, the mean being that educators, both religious and scientific
feel and suggest that "all must make sense", in which case, panlogism in
religion turns to pantheism, either deism or theism, with corresponding
doctrine, and in science, into the scientific method with the presumed
corresponding doctrine of the Standard Model.
Indeed, it is a harsh criticism, though however valid.
In the effort to explain Natural Science and the Cosmos, everyone
resorts to of course, "explanation", for how else might we explain? The
spin-off of course is that those things inexplicable fall to the wayside.
This is understandable, since "All reasoning ends in an appeal to
self-evidence."
(Patmore)
In other words, if the teacher can't somehow provide systemic logic
concerning a particular issue, then there is nothing to learn; directly
and dangerously reinforcing the concept of panlogism.
I say dangerously, because there are already two well taught and
well worn notions derived from panlogism afflicting the sensibility of
man's reason, notably the Big-Bang and genesis, and despite not only
being completely wrong, but big lies, they are continually being taught
to the world's youth, leading to an unstable, disharmonious,
confrontational and hostile global society.
One solution to this problem is the recognition that human
conceptualization is usually wrong, whereas human constructs are more
likely right, and as well, an exhaustive study of such concepts and
their competing alternative views. In the realm of religion, this was
not done concerning creationism and in the realm of science, this was
not done concerning evolutionary cosmological models.
Once scholars begin to recognize these limitations, there is a far
better chance in both the adaptation and adoption of other views in all
areas of theology and science.
