Summary: | Can religious faith be critical and remain recognizable as faith? Or is the idea of a 'critical' faith a contradiction in terms? In this book an emerging new voice in the philosophy of religion argues in favor of critical faith. Playing on a double meaning of the word critical', the title suggests that faith is not only a critical component of human life, but also a component that can and should develop in a critical (intellectually vigilant) way. |
