Philosophical Theology

In Philosophical Foundations for a Christian Worldview, J. P. Moreland and William Lane Craig offer a comprehensive introduction to philosophy from a Christian perspective. In their broad sweep, they introduce listeners to the principal subdisciplines of philosophy, including epistemology, metaphysics, philosophy of science, ethics, and philosophy of religion. They do so with characteristic clarity and incisiveness. Arguments are clearly outlined, and rival theories are presented with fairness and accuracy.

Stories have shaped civilizations, inspired revolutions, and sparked personal transformations. They still have that power today. I was always captivated by stories when I was a child. In school we had a class called “Moral Science,” and there was one teacher, who made it unforgettable. I can still picture his white robe and the sparkle in his eyes as he brought each tale to life. I may not remember algebra or history equations, but I carry with me the values he taught, such as waking up early, being kind, staying punctual, speaking politely, asking questions, and so much more. Surely ...

VITA SANGUINIS: THE CODEX is a philosophical play in five acts, set in the Languedoc of southern France during the final years of the Albigensian Crusade. It is the companion book to the album VITA SANGUINIS by LN. The year is 1243. The institution has been burning its way north for thirty years. YSABEL — a Cathar perfecta — is walking toward Montségur. The road passes through a dying man in a cave, a burned house, a standing stone in a forest clearing, an inquisition chamber, and a field of frost where the fire is already laid. This is not a history play. It is a theology staged ...

In this rigorous and unsettling study, Boris Kriger reconstructs Georges Bataille’s vision of the sacred as a trembling border between reason and its own undoing. Moving beyond biography and commentary, the book situates Bataille’s thought within the crises of twentieth-century modernity—the collapse of transcendence, the exhaustion of eroticism, and the metamorphosis of sacrifice into aesthetics.

Do you value reason, science, and independent thinking? Are you skeptical of beliefs that people maintain merely "on faith," yet you remain interested in the big questions of life? Do you hope there could be a greater purpose to the universe, if only that were realistic? If so, then philosopher Joshua Rasmussen can encourage you in your journey. Beginning with his own story of losing faith and the belief in any ultimate purpose in life, he then builds a bridge to a series of universal truths about ultimate reality.

Preeminent French cynic and philosopher Voltaire (1694-1778) collected ideas and thoughts that were too short for pamphlets but worth saving for later development. These jottings eventually became the Philosophical Dictionary, filled with witty and wise entries on subjects as diverse as Atheism and Kissing - a compendium of the whole spectrum of Voltaire's ideas.

Timothy Williamson tackles some of the key questions surrounding philosophy in new and provocative ways, showing how philosophy begins in common sense curiosity, and develops through our capacity to dispute rationally with each other. Discussing philosophy's ability to clarify our thoughts, he explains why such clarification depends on the development of philosophical theories, and how those theories can be tested by imaginative thought experiments, and compared against each other by standards similar to those used in the natural and social sciences.

There are few subjects known to mankind that has drawn more interest, exploration, and publication than the nature of God and our relationship to Him as human beings. Many approaches to the study stand wholly on a platform of religious doctrine and dogma. Other approaches are secular in nature and rely solely on rational and philosophical arguments. Dr. Ken Bryson brings to the field an approach that applies a balance between these two extremes. As a Christian, Ken bases his arguments in biblical theology and then builds upon this foundation with reason and philosophy drawn from many of the...

How are philosophical and theological concepts conceived in the mind? Why are certain topics of greater importance to philosophers and theologians? Why do people think about these issues in the first place? These are the questions that are explored in the ground breaking book, “The Metaphysical Mind”. Philosophy and theology usually considers various fundamental concepts such as those related to being, reality, causality, logic, or phenomenology. But the philosophical approach to these topics often leaves out one of the most important things – the human brain. After all, it is the ...

Alfred North Whitehead was among the first initiates into the twentieth century’s new cosmological story. This book both sets Whitehead’s philosophy of organism in historical context and brings it into conversation with key elements of contemporary scientific cosmology—including relativistic, quantum, evolutionary, and complexity theories. It lays bare the inadequacy of the materialistic-mechanistic metaphysical interpretation of these theories and exemplifies the contributions Whitehead’s cosmological scheme can make to the urgent transdisciplinary project of integrating natural ...

This book undertakes a thorough examination of the disputed theological heritage of Origen of Alexandria, seeking to present his principal ideas with clarity and to trace the mark they left upon the Christian tradition. It sets forth, in an orderly manner, the way Origen approached the sacred writings through allegory, explaining the discipline by which he discerned several layers of meaning within a single passage and the consequences this method had for interpreting Scripture as a whole.

The empirical sciences make assumptions that they are not themselves capable of justifying. Philosophy justifies those assumptions; that is its job. Sound interesting? The author thinks so too! Listen to Philosophical Knowledge, and learn about philosophy.

God. Atheism. Beauty. Can faith survive the university classroom? Can reason lead us back to God? And what does beauty have to do with truth? In this second volume of The Sleepy Seminarian series, David Suarez—Christian apologist, philosopher, and former Ivy League biology student—takes readers on a journey through the collision of theology, philosophy, and aesthetics. From Catholic–Protestant debates about salvation, to atheism’s self-defeating assumptions, to the transcendent logic of beauty as evidence for God, Eclectic Essays II: God, Atheism, and Beauty offers a rare mix of ...

📖 The Epic of Giga Niga: God is Dead In the ashes of monotheism, amidst the ruins of fallen empires and corrupted scriptures, a new myth rises. The Epic of Giga Niga: God is Dead is a revolutionary philosophical saga that begins where Nietzsche left off. Blending post-theistic theology, decentralized ritual systems, and cosmic myth, this work tells the story of Giga Niga—a stoic, fractal avatar of the Infinite Cycle—who walks the shattered plains of a world abandoned by gods and rebuilt through code, blood, and revelation. Guided by The Lion, the red-eyed guardian of primordial truth...
