Dante places Aristotle, Plato, and Socrates in Limbo, suggesting that philosophy and reason alone are insufficient for salvation, and that knowing Christ is of supreme importance. The relationship between Beatrice, Virgil, and Dante implies that reason and philosophy can only take one so far, and that divine aid and revelation are necessary for true knowledge of God. Virgil, a symbol of human reason, is sent by Beatrice, a symbol of divine love, indicating that reason can only be effective with divine guidance. Dante's emphasis on the limitations of philosophy and reason suggests that evangelization should begin and end with an appeal to divine revelation, rather than relying solely on reason and apologetics. The story of Christ and divine revelation should be the primary focus of evangelization, rather than philosophical arguments and metaphysics. Subscribe on YouTube:    / @ambrosebean  .
