A VERY GOOD INTRODUCTION TO BEGINNERS!,
By M. A. Paz y Mino (LIMA, PERU) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Se Puede Saber Si Dios Existe? (Spanish Edition) (Paperback)
Héctor Avalos' ¿Se puede saber si Dios existe? (Can it know if God exists?), published originally by Ediciones de Filosofía Aplicada (Lima: 2000) has three main subjects: 1. Criticisms to God's existence arguments; 2. Is the Bible the God's Word?; and 3. The most secure methods to know the thruth. Author, a former Pentecostal leader, was firstable concerned only to study deeeply the Bible in college to reach a "true" interpretation of the God's Word. Bu he came to paradoxical conclussions: a. it is both a contradiction and improbability the existence of a supernatural being all-powerful and omni-benevolent at the same time; b. the allegedlly divine revelation are simply cultural products; and c. the best way to get knowledge on natural and social reality is through science and and not through faith in religious dogmas.M.
