Is it possible to know the God? If yes, what is the kind of this knowledge? Is it a priori, or a posteriori? Is it based on mind, experience or intuition? What knowledge is, its relation and difference with concepts such as certainty, belief and doubt have always been a subject of philosophy since its existence. It is generally accepted that something believed cannot be knowledge. However, it is also known that 'belief' and 'knowledge' are closely related concepts. The agnostics have suspended their judgement regarding whether the God exists or not by saying they do not know. As an agnostic philosopher, Anthony Kenny also asserts that the existence and nature of the God cannot be known. On the other hand, according to Kenny, the fact that the belief in God cannot be justified epistemically does not make it meaningless and irrational.
