Download or read book Reasoning about God written by Harry J Gensler and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-08-11 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reasoning about God is an introduction to philosophy of religion, meeting college students where they are with their own doubts and questions. Each chapter begins with a passage from a fictional student, who raises intellectual problems against God, which is followed by the author’s informed and easy-to-understand analysis. This debate structure allows student readers to clearly see the clash of ideas, gets them involved in the issues, and encourages their critical thinking (since students are pushed to find flaws in the ideas). It emulates the structure the author followed successfully in his Ethics: A Contemporary Introduction, which is now in its third edition and has been translated five times into other languages. This structure works well in philosophy of religion, even better than in does in ethics. Key Features of Reasoning about God: Written clearly and concisely, making difficult issues easy to understand. Makes a strong case for belief in God, based on various factors – including arguments about fine-tuning, Kalam, and near-death experiences – as well as approaches that are more instinctual or emotional. A major theme of the book is "There are many paths to God." Includes material on both traditional topics of philosophy of religion (like the problem of evil) and other related topics of interest (like whether religion is harmful, life after death, the variety of world religions, and the meaning of life). Explores how science connects to God’s existence, arguing that recent science is friendlier toward religion than older science. Written by a Christian author, whose defense of belief in God works with other theistic traditions as well (like Islam and Judaism).

Download or read book Glimpsing Heaven written by Martin A. Lopez and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2021-08-03 with total page 469 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author, Martin A. Lopez, (self), is a late-in-life father who wondrously transformed when his children arrived in his life. He changed from a compassionless pawn of the polluters, oblivious consumer, part of the throw-away culture, suffering from severe nature-disconnect, and blind to the environmental devastation happening to humanity. Through his children, he became filled with a mountainous emotional connection with them, and ultimately, to humanity and nature. At the same time, he became inspired to take action to fight for nature. This journey of metamorphosis includes poems, personal essays about nature and an analysis about solutions. He candidly identifies the villains and ‘saints’ destroying our children’s future and gives us a moral and a scientific perspective. He provides a poetic approach for our teachers to educate about the environmental disaster. He further provides an understandable approach to saving our planet. Glimpsing Heaven is an inspired father’s unique portrait of parenthood, eye-opening love, and the world’s environmental challenges.
