Price: R 495.95


| book description |

This revised edition of the first volume of a trilogy on the philosophy of religion is an investigation of what it means, and whether it is coherent, to say that there is a God. The author concludes that, despite philosophical objections, the claims which religious believers make about God are generally coherent only if the words by which they are expressed are being used in stretched or analogical senses, this is in fact the way in which theologians have usually claimed they are being used. The revisions of the text include minor corrections and clarifications.;The second volume of the trilogy is The Existence of God and the third volume is Faith and Reason . Richard Swinburne has also written The Evolution of the Soul , Essays on Religion and Education , The Justification of Science and the Rationality of Religious Belief , and the first two volumes of a projected tetralogy on the philosophy of Christian doctrine, Responsibility and Atonement and Revelation: From Metaphor to Analogy .
