Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Does trust grow fragile when people are too rational or when they are not rational enough? Both thoughts are plausible. Which is right depends on how we define "reason." Martin Hollis' elegant and distinctive study argues for an interpretation of "reason" as putting the common good before one's own. This offers a universal reciprocity to people who then choose what reason shall mean for them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why the social character of scientific knowledge makes it trustworthy Are doctors right when they tell us vaccines are safe?

Book Synopsis The Reason for God by : Timothy Keller
Download or read book The Reason for God written by Timothy Keller and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2008-02-14 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times bestseller people can believe in—by "a pioneer of the new urban Christians" (Christianity Today) and the "C.S. Lewis for the 21st century" (Newsweek). Timothy Keller, the founding pastor of Redeemer Presbyterian Church in New York City, addresses the frequent doubts that skeptics, and even ardent believers, have about religion. Using literature, philosophy, real-life conversations, and potent reasoning, Keller explains how the belief in a Christian God is, in fact, a sound and rational one. To true believers he offers a solid platform on which to stand their ground against the backlash to religion created by the Age of Skepticism. And to skeptics, atheists, and agnostics, he provides a challenging argument for pursuing the reason for God.

Book Synopsis The Creator and the Cosmos by : Hugh Norman Ross
Download or read book The Creator and the Cosmos written by Hugh Norman Ross and published by NavPress Publishing Group. This book was released on 2001 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few of us can venture outside on a clear, dark night and not pause for a silent, reflective look at the stars. For countless centuries people have felt a sense of wonder about the heavens. How did our universe come into being? Has it always been here? Is our existence due to random chance or supernatural design? Is God "out there"? If so, what is He like? Traditionally, the church has answered such questions with Scripture, while science has contributed theories and formulas of its own. Torn between a deep respect for church doctrines and an intellectual need for answers that support what their senses are telling them, many Christians have avoided such discussions altogether. Actually, the two sides are no longer that far apart. In The Creator and the Cosmos, astrophysicist Dr. Hugh Ross explains how recent scientific measurements of the universe have clearly pointed to the existence of God. Whether you're looking for scientific support for your faith or new reasons to believe, The Creator and the Cosmos will enable you to see the Creator for yourself.
Book Synopsis Trust, Ethics and Human Reason by : Olli Lagerspetz
Download or read book Trust, Ethics and Human Reason written by Olli Lagerspetz and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-11-19 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The variety of approaches to the concept of trust in philosophy reflects the fact that our worries are diverse, from the Hobbesian concern for the possibility of rational cooperation to Wittgenstein's treatment of the place of trust in knowledge. To speak of trust is not only to describe human action but also to take a perspective on it and to engage with it. Olli Lagerspetz breathes new life into the philosophical debate by showing how questions about trust are at the centre of any in-depth analyses of the nature of human agency and human rationality and that these issues, in turn, lie at the heart of philosophical ethics. Ideal for those grappling with these issues for the first time, Trust, Ethics and Human Reason provides a thorough and impassioned assessment of the concept of trust in moral philosophy.

Download or read book Faith and Reason written by Scott Cherry and published by . This book was released on 2019-08-17 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Faith and Reason are not opposites. They go together. Why does reason work and why do we generally trust in it? What is its relationship to faith? Why do we expect things to make sense, and why does anything make sense at all? Among other qualities, our innate capacities for faith and reasoning are among the defining attributes of humanness. The uniquely human powers of faith and reason are some of the fundamental things that allow us to function as humans instead of as animals. Conversely, it's the absence of these capacities that defines animals and causes them to behave as they do. Is faith involved in reason? Scott Cherry argues yes, and that they are interdependent. Faith fuels reason, and vice-versa. But the emphasis of this book is on reason: Because reason exists, God exists. Thankfully, we can reason about both reason and faith and reflect on their qualities and functions. It's not that through our powers of reason we can be certain of the existence of God, but that the very existence of reason and logic points to a rational God. Reason and faith work together. Contents: Prologue, The Universe and Reason; Preface, In Praise of Reason and Reasonable Faith; (1) A Child's Reason and Logic; (2) The Logos Principle--Active Ingredients; (3) Meta-Cognition: Reasoning about Reason; (4) The Complementary Nature of Reason; (5) Reason, Revelation and Purpose; (6) Reason, Revelation and Validation; (7) The Logic of Reason and Laws of Logic; (8) Objections to the Logos Principle, part 1; (9) Objections to the Logos Principle, part 2; (10) The Reciprocity of Reason and Logic; (11) The Sheer Wonder of Intelligibility; (12) Intelligibility of a Mosque, a Parable; (13) Peony Gardens, Butterflies and Design; (14) Conclusions to the Logos Principle; (15) God, the Logos, and the Trinity. *This book is a retitled version of the author's previously published book, "The Reason of Reason' and is almost identical. So if the reader has read the latter they need not read this.
Book Synopsis Trusting Others, Trusting God by : Sheela Pawar
Download or read book Trusting Others, Trusting God written by Sheela Pawar and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-02-17 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trusting Others, Trusting God is an investigation of the concepts of moral and religious trust. The question of why or how it is rational to trust anyone has been the typical focus of philosophers, with an underlying assumption that trust must be justified. In most cases, trust (even - or perhaps especially religious trust) is portrayed as irrational. Sheela Pawar argues that a grammatical investigation of the concept of trust can help rectify this mistreatment.
Book Synopsis Keeping Faith in an Age of Reason by : Jason Lisle
Download or read book Keeping Faith in an Age of Reason written by Jason Lisle and published by New Leaf Publishing Group. This book was released on 2017-10-26 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “You can’t trust the Bible — it’s full of hundreds of contradictions.” Really? Just because the critic mindlessly declares it so? Don’t be so fast to believe everything you hear! In this book Dr. Jason Lisle examines 420 claims of Bible contradictions and sets the record straight. Contradiction #139 Was Abraham justified by faith or by works? Romans 4:2 - says by faith VS. James 2:21 - says by works Bifurcation fallacy. Abraham was justified both by faith and by works (James 2:24, 26). To “justify” means either to be in right moral standing or to show that one is (morally) in right standing. Abraham was justified by faith before God since God knows all things — including Abraham’s faith (James 2:23). God sees our hearts (1 Samuel 16:7), so we are justified before God by our faith alone, which God can see. But men cannot see another man’s faith. They only see the outward works that follow from inward faith. Therefore, Abraham was justified before men by the works that followed from his faith, since men cannot see faith but can see works. James explicitly teaches this (James 2:18–26).
