Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Hasn't every age claimed somehow to have mastered God? The Ancients bound Him to ritual; the Enlightenment exalted reason over Him. Contemporary science subverts Him through alternate explanations, claiming there are no mysteries-and therefore, nothing is beyond reach of our minds. That 'Science has ruled out divine action in the world' is an axiom we have, in practice, come to fully accept. A god (one idea among many) isn't compatible with the cosmos as we know it. Clayton's book (a contribution to a series called Edinburgh Studies in Constructive Theology, co-edited by Clayton and Kevin Vanhoozen) is a theological response to the challenge modern science has directly and indirectly posed to Christian Faith. He considers developments in philosophy and natural science, summarizes key issues in the science and religion debate, and addresses consciousness, agency, and the theory of knowledge. Trinitarian and Christological dogma find their place at the very center of Clayton's approach, as well as a theology of history and divine action. Clayton's interpretive key here is panentheism, 'a widely discussed though controversial approach to the doctrine of God.which locates the world within the divine being while still insisting that God transcends the world.' These are critical issues for the Christian in post-modernity; the question we must now consider for the sake of our culture is not 'has God acted?' but is rather, 'how has God acted?' Philip Clayton is convinced that we can give our age a relevant answer. Faint water stain at upper textblock corner, previous seller stamp, pages clean & free of staining.
