9780198244103: The Coherence of Theism (Clarendon Library of Logic & Philosophy)

Synopsis

This book investigates what it means, and whether it is coherent to say that there is a God. The author concludes that, despite philosophical objections, many of the claims religious believers make are coherent; and that although some important claims are coherent only if the words by which they are expressed are being used in a stretched or analogical sense, this is in fact the way in which theologians have always claimed they are being used.
