The Philosophy Of Religion is a compact introduction to the questions philosophers ask about religion. Its aim is to analyze and evaluate religious beliefs in their living context. Too often philosophy of religion has been both unrealistic and narrow - unrealistic because religious language is viewed in isolation from its context; narrow because too often religious language is identified simply with Christian language. This book attempts to remedy these defects. The first part explores the meaning of religious statements; the second part considers more directly issues about truth in these statements. Successive chapters concern the definition of religion, the inexpressible, the meaning of "the meaning of life," the idea of revealed truth, religion and nature, and the psychological and other theories of religion. 200.10195201396 Perpustakaan STTB Bandung Theological Seminary 200.1 Sma p E07000248 Non Fiction 200.1 Sma p 314unwbaUeL.jpg 49670 2014-12-11 08:36:43 2024-11-05 17:43:38 machine generated
