C. Stephen Evans Presents The Case For Understanding Theistic Arguments As Expressions Of Natural Signs In Order To Gain A New Perspective Both On Their Strengths And Weaknesses. C. Stephen Evans. Bibliographic Level Mode Of Issuance: Monograph Includes Bibliographical References (p. [193]-201) And Index. English
This book investigates whether traditional theistic arguments can be reinterpreted as natural signs that provide non-inferential knowledge of God. C. Stephen Evans, a philosopher of religion, draws upon the work of Alvin Plantinga and Reformed epistemology to argue that theistic proofs should not be viewed as failed logical syllogisms, but as pointers that trigger a natural human awareness of the divine. He evaluates the historical development of these arguments to demonstrate how they function within the cognitive architecture of human belief.
