Talk:Esoteric knowledge

I don't see any reason why we shouldn't merge Esoteric knowledge and Occult (and probably esotericism). If these articles need to be differentiated more strongly then we need to write text that does this.
Occult has a different connotation. Esoteric knowledge is simply information that is "true" but by some circumstance not general, for example, precisely how to make a small H-bomb, or the sort of knowledge a veteran taxidriver has of a city. Esotericism, on the other hand, consists of attaching significance to a body of knowledge which is at variance with general knowledge; although it may be neither secret or true. User:Fredbauder
