The Problem of God in Modern Thought, Paperback / softback Book

The Problem of God in Modern Thought Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

It is widely believed that modern philosophers have dismissed the idea of God and opted instead for a secular humanism.

Challenging these stereotypes through a careful study of major philosophical texts written since the Enlightenment, Philip Clayton shows how the main thinkers of the modern period have continued to wrestle with the problem of God and to make proposals for understanding the divine.Following up on his award-winning book God and Contemporary Science, Clayton here explores the constructive resources that modern thought offers to those struggling with the notion of God as infinite and perfect.

He finds in the narrative of modern thought about God strong support for panentheism, the new theological movement that maintains the transcendence of God while denying the separation of God and the world.
