Fragment Notes: Theology Lecture Fragment — Ambiguity in Numerical Question and Upcoming Chapter
Overview
- The speaker indicates the topic is theology and mentions discussing "elements that refer to five subsistence."
- A quick question is posed within the discussion.
- There is a note that, after addressing this question, the session will move on to other material.
Key Concepts from the Transcript
- Theology as the central topic of discussion.
- Elements that refer to "five subsistence" (phrase appears in the transcript; requires clarification for precise meaning).
Student Question Highlighted
- Question in the transcript: "When you answer this one, should we be looking at six six either, or we just know it should be four?"
- This indicates a potential numerical or choice-based problem or example being discussed, with two possible interpretations presented: something involving "six six" (unclear) versus "four".
- The wording suggests ambiguity in how to approach or interpret the problem setup.
Upcoming Session / Continuation
- The instructor notes that on Wednesday, they will begin to chapter [text appears cut off].
- Implies a shift to a new chapter/topic in the next class session.
Clarifications and Ambiguities to Resolve
- The exact meaning of "five subsistence" in this context is unclear; may refer to a specific theological framework, list, or methodological element.
- The phrase "six six either" is ambiguous; could represent a typographical error, spoken hesitation, or a shorthand for a two-option choice.
- The incomplete sentence "on Wednesday, we will begin to chapter" leaves the exact chapter reference unknown.
Practical Notes for Study and Exam Prep
- Prepare to ask for clarification on:
- What is meant by "five subsistence" and how it fits into the theology being studied.
- The intended interpretation of the numerical question: is the correct interpretation 66, 6 and 6, or 4? What is the governing rule or context for choosing between options?
- The chapter that will be started on Wednesday (which chapter number or title) and the key objectives for that chapter.
- Review previous material related to theology and any defined lists or subsystems that might correspond to a phrase like "five subsistence".
- If possible, locate the slides or notes for the session to confirm the exact wording and any figures referenced in the problem.
