Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kenny, a philosopher by profession, struggles with the intellectual problems of theism and the possibility of believing in god, especially in an intellectual climate dominated by Logical Positivism. Here he revisits the Five Ways of Aquinas and argues that they are not so much proofs as definitions of God. He is also in constant dialogue with Wittgenstein for, Kenny writes, no man in recent years has surpassed him in devotion of sharp intelligence to the demarcation of the boundary between sense and nonsense.

Book excerpt: Delve into this thought-provoking collection of personal essays from award-winning and bestselling authors who explore the perennial question: What do I believe? Whether believer, skeptic, agnostic, atheist, or something other, these twenty-four authors share a fascinating, daring, and multifaceted perspective on what faith means (or doesn’t mean). The collection of personal essays includes bestselling authors such as Anne Perry, who writes about a deeply spiritual faith that embraces and sustains her through every step of her life. Caroline Leavitt writes about tarot cards, mediums, and quantum physics to explain her concept of faith. Afghan-American author Tamim Ansary beautifully captures his childhood curiosity amidst his Islamic views. There is the irrepressible Malachy McCourt’s anti-religion rant, and then Pam Houston’s signature wit and sense of irony, which gives the question of faith a surprising twist. Honest, provocative, and candid, Faith begins a larger conversation and invites the question: What do you believe?

Book excerpt: "In these wide-ranging essays, Darrow attacks beliefs in the inerrancy of the Bible, the immortality of the soul, miracles, and heaven as being completely at odds with human experience and science. The life best lived, Darrow contends, is one that is ruled by reason, uncluttered by dogmatism, and aided by compassion for our fellow human beings." -- Publisher's description

Download or read book An Agnostic's Apology written by Leslie Stephen and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-13 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A gripping and emotional work around the power of religion and the defense of agnosticism, Leslie Stephen's An Agnostic's Apology and Other Essays is considered a seminal work in religious studies. Through the course of his life, Leslie Stephen held many professions including clergyman, journalist, author, and literary critic. In addition to his contributions to these fields, he is also known as the father of famous author Virginia Wolf and famous artist Vanessa Bell. Stephen was born and raised in London and many of his childhood experiences were shaped by religion. His immediate family was part of an early 19th century group of evangelical Christian social reformers known as the Clapham Sect, known for their religious mission and social activism. When Stephen went off to college, he continued his religious exploration through study and eventually became an Anglican clergyman. By his 30s, however, he renounced his religious beliefs and became an investigative journalist, both changes led to the writing and publication of his book An Agnostic's Apology and Other Essays. Stephen begins the book by describing the difference between an atheist (one who does not believe in any god) and an agnostic (one who questions the existence of a god). "The Agnostic is one who asserts 'what no one denies' that there are limits to the sphere of human intelligence..." This distinction is important for the reader to fully understand Stephen's points in his book. His work is colored with the same fervor and poignancy that filled his spiritual life and his argument for Agnosticism reads like a sermon. Each of the essays in An Agnostic's Apology and Other Essays are about religion and religious themes. The Skepticism of Believers, Dreams and Realities; What is Materialism?; Newman's Theory of Belief; Poisonous Opinions; and The Religion of all Sensible Men are all topics explored in the book. Stephen's own personal experiences help shade his approach to the topic of religion in an interesting and dynamic way. His own religious beliefs, or lack thereof, give an interesting look into religion during his lifetime. This book is an excellent read and highly recommended for any reader.

Download or read book Faith and Sight written by William Pierson Merrill and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-20 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: William Pierson Merrill was a well known American clergyman, pacifist, a very prolific hymn writer, and an exceedingly popular author. The book Faith and Sight: Essays on the Relation of Agnosticism to Theology compiles several of Merrill's lesser known essays on religion into a single anthology. Each of these essays has a clear voice and a focused intent behind the writing. The eleven pieces in this anthology cover a wide range of ideas about religion and theology that any reader will enjoy. During the course of his career, Merrill was considered by many to be one of the most influential ministers in America. His work unifying political, academic, and religious leaders as the first president of an organization called the Church Peace Union solidified his mission of promoting peace and pacifism. His popularity and his mission guided his writings and how the general public received his publications. The tone of his writing and the content of his essays are certainly slanted based on his mission and his reputation. Faith and Sight: Essays on the Relation of Agnosticism to Theology is an interesting read for any individual intrigued by the life and times of William Pierson Merrill. He was a man who was a leader among men during his career, and Merrill's book is a fascinating glimpse into his beliefs, thoughts, ideas, and practices. This book is also stands out as a very interesting read for religious scholars, historians, those interested in philosophy, or those with a passing interesting in religious opinion pieces. Don't miss this opportunity to read the work of one of America's greatest religious authors! About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
