The Absolute Knowledge of God and the Relative Knowledge of Man
In the 15th century, Nicholas of Cusa expanded Anselm's work on the 'greatest' thing. I conclude that Anselm's work expanded the thoughts of Jesus Christ on the concepts of 'least' and 'great' in Matt. 5:19. To add to the thoughts of Jesus Christ and Anselm, Cusa found that the maximum of a greatest thing does not change (in not a variable). Things in our world can thus be absolute (is permanent) or relative (changes). Cusa also found that the greatest thing is absolutely maximum and absolutely minimum. So,the universe exists in between the absolute maximum and absolute minimum of the greatest thing, which I call God.
A greatest thing that creates has knowledge. The knowledge of the greatest thing is higher than the knowledge that can be developed by humans. Since the maximum knowledge of a greatest thing cannot be compared with the relative knowledge of man, the maximum knowledge of the greatest thing has been called 'wisdom' by most people
The atheists and materialists only understand the relative knowledge of man. The wisdom of God will not be found in their minds.
