In some cases, we are in favor of widening these boundaries in such a way that they can also include religious and quasi-religious beliefs, while in others we are in favor of narrowing them so that knowledge and faith can be clearly distinguished. In these considerations, I cite examples of positions on both issues that have in the past met with both relatively wide acceptance and serious reservations. It is worth taking a closer look at them, because it turns out that in science nothing is decided once and for all, and what seemed to belong to the past sometimes comes back with even greater force. I show this on two examples of contemporary positions on the issue of understanding the limits of scientific knowledge.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Bespoke scientific knowledge}, URL={http://www.journals.pan.pl/Content/128713/PDF/N%23323-03-Drozdowicz.pdf}, doi={10.24425/nauka.2023.147310}, keywords={frontiers of scientific knowledge, “boundary” conditions of knowledge procurement, historical and contemporary controversies}, }
