Kashfence Philosophy is the doctrine that maintains rational and scientific reasoning is the basis for a happy and moral life. The word Kashfence is comprised of the word 'Kashf', meaning to discover in some languages, with the suffix 'ence' which denotes a quality, an action or result. Together 'kashf' and 'ence' create the original word Kashfence intended to capture the essence of discovering through rational and scientific reasoning and analysis. The essence of Kashfence Philosophy is for every person to discover through rational and scientific reasoning. It is a philosophical view that accepts the existence of God but rejects claims of divine revelations and prophethood.The book critically analyses the most fundamental points about the claim of divine origin with regards to the three Abrahamic religions of Judaism, Christianity and Islam. The author also briefly discusses the Hindu pantheon and some of the issues associated with that tradition. He concludes that the claims of divinity by the widely practiced religions of our time are irrational and unscientific. He then goes on to present a philosophical view called the Kashfence Philosophy that are based on a set of rational and secular principles that every person could live by.Dr Shahin Soltanian has spent most of his life studying philosophy and the theology, jurisprudence and history of different religious thoughts. He has a PhD from the University of Auckland in philosophy.
