Publisher's Synopsis
This anthology focuses on perspectives of religious faith with their differing approaches to the roles of reason, knowledge, the will, belief, and language. It opens by posing fundamental questions surrounding belief/unbelief, and then moves ahead to examine the arguments for God's existence and the four classic models of religious faith. The final sections examine the rationality of religious faith through an analysis of Wittgenstein and the plausibility of language games. Includes selections from Rousseau, Russell, Taylor, Paley, Hume, Shelley, St. Thomas Aquinas, Kierkegaard, Hick, Heaney, Cantwell Smith, and more.
