Format: Hardcover
Philosophy professor John Haldane presents An Intelligent Person's Guide To Religion, a quite scholarly and informative discussion that strives to clarify exactly what atheists deny and theists believe. Individual chapters address the fundamental cosmic questions of death, the meaning of life, value and purpose to existence, the implications of history, the doubting philosophers and more all as applying to religion. An evenhanded treatment, An Intelligent Person's Guide To Religion provides an excellent starting point and reference for theological debate and is highly recommended for its literate, sensitive, and matter-of-fact treatment of passionately charged subjects.

How pleasant to have an academic Christian find faith in God through Jesus confirmed, rather than misplaced in deception. Step by step, logic and faith are shown to be brothers. Righteousness and peace kiss each other. What the Spirit has taught believers for thousands of years to be true, remains true. Now that our Western culture has gone mad with deception running at will, John Haldane brings in light to illuminate the mind and soul of the reader. Thoroughly researched, and interestingly written. Now wish I could audit Dr. Haldane's philosophy class in person. Nice work, John.
