Download or read book The Pragmatics of Defining Religion written by Platvoet and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2018-11-13 with total page 566 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume promotes a pragmatic, anti-essentialist and anti-hegemonic approach to the problem of the definition of religion. It argues that definitions of religion are context-bound strategies for pursuing a variety of purposes, extra-academic as well as academic. Religions being immensely varied, complex and multi-functional phenomena, they need to be studied by several academic disciplines from many different perspectives. It is, therefore, legitimate and useful that many definitions of religions are developed. The volume has contributions from scholars in Philosophy of Religion, the Comparative Study of Religions, Anthropology of Religion, Sociology of Religion and Psychology of Religion. It has chapters on the polemics of defining religion in modern contexts, the history of the concept of religion, and the methodology of its definition; it includes several definition proposals.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study offers students of religion and philosophy introductory chapters concerning the concept of natural religion.

This is discussed with reference to the notion of natural religion to illustrate certain aspects of deism and its legacy. Originally published in 1989.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book surveys the thesis that all religions are alike in referring and relating to a single, common transcendent and sacred reality. It treats this thesis as one in the philosophy of religion and systematically sets out its main philosophical strengths and weaknesses. The key to understanding and defending pluralism is argued to lie in a realist understanding of religion, which is defined by way of an account of the reference of names for sacred, transcendent reality.

Download or read book Being Reasonable About Religion written by William Charlton and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-11-30 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When we start to discuss religion we run into controversial questions about history and anthropology, about the scope of scientific explanation, and about free will, good and evil. This book explains how to find our way through these disputes and shows how we can be freed from assumptions and prejudices which make progress impossible by deeper philosophical insight into the concepts involved. Books about religion usually concentrate on a few central Judaeo-Christian doctrines and either attack them or defend them with tenacious conservatism, yielding nothing. This book has a broader scope, and instead of trying to prove that religion, or any particular religion, is reasonable or unreasonable, it seeks to persuade people to be reasonable about religion.

Download or read book 'Religion' and the Religions in the English Enlightenment written by Peter Harrison and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2002-05-02 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examines the changes which took place in the understanding of 'religion' and 'the religions' during the Enlightenment in England, the period when the decisive break with Patristic, Medieval and Renaissance notions of religion occurred. Dr Harrison's view is that the principles of the English Enlightenment not only made a special contribution to our modern understanding of what religion is, but they pioneered, in addition, the 'scientific', or non-religious approach, to religious phenomena. During this period a crisis of authority in the Church necessitated a rational enquiry into the various forms of Christianity, and in addition, into the claims of all religions. This led to a concept of 'religion' (based on 'natural' theology) which could link together the apparently disparate religious beliefs and practices found in the empirical religions.

Download or read book The Spirit of the Child written by David Hay and published by Jessica Kingsley Publishers. This book was released on 2006-01-19 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spirituality is increasingly acknowledged to be an essential part of child development. David Hay argues for the inclusion of spiritual awareness as a cross-curricular element in the school syllabus to promote the development of morality and social cohesion. While culturally constructed pressures and the decline in institutional religion have led to the suppression of spiritual expression, children are, the author maintains, capable of profound and meaningful beliefs from an early age. A three-year research study into young children's spirituality and its survival value informs Hay's view that spirituality in education needs to overcome traditional approaches and should adopt a theory of spirituality that includes religion but is not confined to it. This stimulating book will encourage educators, parents and others involved in teaching children to consider new approaches to foster children's natural spiritual development.

Download or read book Coming to Christ written by Owen F. Cummings and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coming to Christ provides a retrieval of the traditional Christian doctrine of eternal life through scripture and the history of theological reflection, while presenting the liturgy as primary theology since it addresses God directly. It traces back to Neanderthal man the reality of human hope that looks beyond death and demands final expression in eternal communion with God. This book examines Christian eschatology which developed not only through the universal experience of mankind, but through the Scriptures, and in the reception of the scriptures in the tradition of reflection of the church. The author discusses selectively representative Christian thinkers in the Patristic, Medieval, and Reformation periods, exposing the similarities between them. He then moves into the radically changed thinking of modern times, beginning with Kant and the liberal nineteenth century Protestant theology, as well as an examination of Protestant, Catholic Anglican, and Orthodox theologians to give a sense of range and scope of twentieth century eschatology. Also addressed are the contemporary issues of reincarnation from a Christian perspective, along with feminist and ecological eschatologies.
