More wisdom from Richard Purtill

 
 
 

To many people the universe, as science shows it to us, does not feel like the sort of universe that would be made by a personal god. And since many people think mainly with their emotions, there seems to them to be an argument.

—Richard Purtill

from his book, Reason to Believe: Why Faith Makes Sense

FAITH AND REASON

In this newly updated classic work, Purtill carefully applies the power of the mind to understanding whether there is a rational basis for certain religious beliefs. Reason to Believe is not a work of revealed theology or religious devotion; it is a highly readable book on the philosophy of religion, aimed at the reader who wants to think seriously about religion but who doesn’t know all the philosophers’ and theologians’ jargon and who may or may not be a committed believer.
