Description:

A refreshing and entirely original work in practical theology, which takes seriously the eschatology of Lutheran theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer and offers a modern interpretation of three key concepts of Christian theology: faith, death and resurrection. Weiser examines classical arguments of Anselm, Aquinas and Descartes, providing an appendix on logic and epistemology. Also considered: atheism, gods and goddesses, Calvinism, Jesus' mission, intelligent design, Christian ethics, science and religion. This is a book that clears the air of cant and drivel, consigning the evangelical bunk of Pat Robertson and Jack Van Impe to the flames.
