Faith and Rationality
Reason and Belief in God
Alvin Plantinga,Nicholas Wolterstorff
Ă propos de ce livre
Arguments about the "evidences of Christianity" have consumed the talents of believers and agnostics. These arguments have tried to giveâor to denyâChristian belief a "foundation." Belief is rational, the argument goes, only if it is logically derived from axiomatic truths or is otherwise supported by "enough evidence."
Arguments for belief generally fail to sway the unconvinced. But is this because the evidence is flimsy and the arguments weakâor because they attempt to give the right answer to the wrong question? What, after all, would satisfy Russell's all for evidence?
Faith and Rationality investigates the rich implications of what the authors call "Calvinistic" or "Reformed epistemology." This is the view of knowledge-enunciated by Calvin, further developed by Barth-that sees belief in God as its own foundation; in the authors' terms, is it properly "basic" in itself.
