Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'The Problem of God' is a profound exploration of the nature of divinity and the challenges posed by traditional theistic beliefs in a modern world. Written by the influential philosopher and theologian Edgar Sheffield Brightman, this work delves into the complex relationship between human experience and the divine. Central to the book is Brightman's concept of a 'finite God,' an idea that attempts to reconcile the presence of evil and suffering with the existence of a benevolent creator. By examining the limitations of classical theism, Brightman offers a compelling argument for a deity that is intimately involved in the ongoing process of creation and moral struggle.The text serves as a cornerstone of the Boston Personalist school of thought, emphasizing the value of personality and the reality of a conscious, purposive spirit at the heart of the universe. Brightman addresses various philosophical objections and provides a systematic framework for understanding God's role in ethics, science, and history. 'The Problem of God' remains a vital resource for students of philosophy and theology, offering a rigorous yet accessible inquiry into one of humanity's most enduring questions. This work continues to inspire dialogue regarding the intersection of faith, reason, and the persistence of the human spirit.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it. This work was reproduced from the original artifact, and remains as true to the original work as possible. Therefore, you may see the original copyright references, library stamps (as most of these works have been housed in our most important libraries around the world), and other notations in the work.This work is in the public domain in the United States of America, and possibly other nations.
