Sinossi
This book deals with the relations between rationality and religious faith. In particular, it takes into consideration various perspectives on the idea of an intellectual approach to the Christian faith. Some of the key questions in this book will be: Are some world views more rational than others? Is it rational to believe in a transcendent dimension of reality? Is being a theist more rational than being an atheist? Are there limits to what questions we can hope to answer by rational and scientific reasoning and investigation? What role can rationality play in the study of time and reality? How can we settle questions about transcendence and metaphysics? It is sometimes claimed that rationality and logic are more or less opposed to the very ideas of metaphysics and transcendence. This is, however, not at all the case. On the contrary, notions such as validity and truth very easily give rise to ideas of the transcendent and supernatural. No final proof of the existence of a transcendent reality can be given. Obviously all the arguments dealing with such problems have to be based on some premises, which may be debated. But this book illustrates that the study of logic, scientific understanding, and various kinds of communication can provide useful insights indicating that it seems rather reasonable to assume the existence of a supernatural or transcendent reality.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Rationality is widely regarded as being at odds with the very concepts of metaphysics and transcendence. Yet it is easy to forget that the thinkers who pioneered rationality and the scientific method did not subscribe to this view. For instance, Aristotle described God as the source of reason in "Eudemian Ethics", and Newton and Galileo both believed that our ability to investigate the world scientifically has a divine origin. The eight essays in this volume examine a variety of intellectual approaches to the Christian faith, addressing a number of philosophical questions en route: Are some worldviews more rational than others? What limits are there to the kinds of queries we can answer through reasoning and scientific inquiry? What role can rationality play in the study of time and reality? How can we resolve questions about transcendence and metaphysics? The book concludes with the transcript of a public debate on whether theism is more rational than atheism. Not only does it serve as a useful reminder that religion and reason can inhabit the same discourse, but the lack of a clear winner also demonstrates the importance of trying to wrestle with such perennial questions. Anyone who is exploring the arguments for Christianity's rational basis, whether out of academic, cultural or personal interest, should find in this volume much food for thought.
