Publisher: Stanford University Press: August 1992

Condition: Used - Very Good

If God now knows that you will do something in the future, can you nevertheless be free to do otherwise? In recent years there has been much interesting new work on the venerable question of divine foreknowledge and the freedom of the human will - a question that has haunted Christian thought nearly from its inception and is familiar from Boethius and Milton even to those with little awareness of other theological issues. The authors of these twelve essays attempt to articulate an argument that, if sound, would show that God's forknowledge is incompatible with human freedom to do otherwise. Th...

Price: $2.50

Publisher: Signet: August 1996

Seller ID: 27781

ISBN: 0451191137

Binding: Paperback

Condition: Used - Very Good

Anthem is Ayn Rand's classic tale of a dystopian future of the great "We"--a world that deprives individuals of a name or independence--that anticipates her later masterpieces, The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged.

They existed only to serve the state. They were conceived in controlled Palaces of Mating. They died in the Home of the Useless. From cradle to grave, the crowd was one--the great WE.

In all that was left of humanity there was only one man who dared to think, seek, and love. He lived in the dark ages of the future. In a loveless world, he dared to ...

Absolute Truth About Relativism: The Fundamental Delusion of Our Time

By: Breshears, Jefrey D.

Price: $3.50

Publisher: Areopagus The: March 2013

Seller ID: 339977

ISBN: 0983068054

Condition: Used - Very Good

The Christian philosopher Alvin Plantinga writes that as a student at Yale the academic culture was wonderfully stimulating, free and open in most every respect but one: whenever the question, "What is the truth about this matter?" came up, it was usually dismissed as unsophisticated and naive. Obviously, Pilate's question to Jesus, "What is truth?" remains an open issue and an unsolvable riddle - if not a purely rhetorical question - to most of our current crop of cultural elites. As William Gairdner notes in The Book of Absolutes, "Ironically, relativism has become our only absolute."

Peter Byrne takes a critical look at the traditional attempt to interpret religion in moral terms. He discusses the general character of moral interpretation, probes the relation of religion to morality, and assesses historical attempts to reason directly from the basis of morality to the existence of a personal God. His work clearly demonstrates the strengths of a moral approach to religious faith and the surest method for building a cogent moral argument.

By: Clifford Williams

Publisher: Baker Academic: March-2002

What purpose do purely intellectual pursuits have in the lives of Christians? Why should Christians study subjects that have little bearing on their future careers and ministry?

Christians cultivating the life of the mind actively pursue situations and discussions that require experimentation, reflection, and perseverance. They are interested in the acquisition of kno...

***Life's Too Short to Pretend You're Not Religious

By: Dark

Price: $11.97

Publisher: IVP Books: February 2016

Seller ID: 339569

ISBN: 0830844465

Condition: New

For many of us, the word "religious" immediately evokes thoughts of brainwashing, violence and eye-rubbingly tiresome conversations. Why not be done with it? David Dark argues that it's not that simple. The ease with which we put the label on others without applying it to ourselves is an evasion, a way of avoiding awareness of our own messy allegiances. Dark writes: "If what we believe is what we see is what we do is who we are, there's no getting away from religion." Both incisive and entertaining, Life's Too Short to Pretend You're Not Religious combines Dark's keen powers of cultur...

Condition: New

Translated by Elizabeth S. Haldane and G.R.T. Ross. Edited with an Introduction by Enrique Chavez-Arvizo.

Rene Descartes (1569-1650), the 'father' of modern philosophy, is without doubt one of the greatest thinkers in history: his genius lies at the core of our contemporary intellectual identity. Breaking with the conventions of his own time and suffering persecution by the Church as a consequence, Descartes in his writings - most of which are philosophical classics - attempted to answer the central questions surrounding the self, God, free-will and knowledge, using ...

How Do We Know?: An Introduction to Epistemology

By: Dew Jr., James K., Foreman, Mark W.

Price: $19.99

Publisher: IVP Academic: January 2014

Seller ID: 329063

ISBN: 0830840362

Condition: New

What does it mean to know something? Can we have confidence in our knowledge? Epistemology, the study of knowledge, can often seem like a daunting subject. And yet few topics are more basic to human life. We are inquisitive creatures by nature, and the unending quest for truth leads us to raise difficult questions about the quest itself. What are the conditions, sources and limits of our knowledge? Do our beliefs need to be rationally justified? Can we have certainty? In this primer on epistemology, James Dew and Mark Foreman guide students through this discipline in philosophy. By asking basi...
