The Elusive God: Reorienting Religious Epistemology

摘要

Cloth, $90.00In this remarkable, noteworthy volume, Loyola University's philosophy chair, Paul Moser, has made a comprehensive case for a "Copernican revolution" in religious epistemology. Some natural theologians will dispute the spectator-evidence versus divinely-authoritative-purposeful-evidence demarcation: (a) significant "spectator evidence" for God's existence, though secondary and not ultimately authoritative, is abundant in Scripture (for example, many miracles fitting into the "divine pyrotechnics" category); (b) such evidence can be, and has been, used by God in combination with - and here Moser's emphasis is critical - a willing, seeking heart open to relationship with God.
