Inhaltsangabe

Is God Knowable? A clear argument that God can be known as a personal, self-conscious Spirit.

This work argues that knowledge of God is possible and meaningful, not just a theoretical hope. It engages science, philosophy, and religion to show why a personal God can enter into real relationship with finite creatures. Drawing on the history of religious thought in the East and West, it sets out why a personal, self-conscious divine presence is necessary to explain life, mind, and moral experience.

  • Clarifies what “knowledge” of God can mean in a modern context
  • contrasts impersonal and personal conceptions of the Divine
  • traces how science, philosophy, and religion shape our view of God
  • discusses ideas from Hinduism, Buddhism, and Brahmanism to illuminate the search for God
Ideal for readers of philosophy of religion, theology, and the history of ideas who want a thoughtful, accessible discussion on whether and how God can be known.
