The Foundations of Religious Belief: The Methods of Natural Theology Vindicated Against Modern Objections (1883)

The Foundations of Religious Belief: The Methods of Natural Theology Vindicated Against Modern Objections is a book written by William Dexter Wilson and published in 1883. The book explores the methods of natural theology and argues that they are still valid despite modern objections. Wilson begins by defining natural theology as the study of God through the observation of nature and human reason. He then discusses the various objections to natural theology that have arisen in modern times, including the rise of scientific materialism and the challenge of religious pluralism. Throughout the book, Wilson provides a detailed defense of natural theology, arguing that it is still a valid and necessary method for understanding God and the world. He also addresses various theological topics, such as the nature of God, the problem of evil, and the relationship between faith and reason. The Foundations of Religious Belief is a thoughtful and insightful exploration of natural theology and its place in modern religious thought. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in theology, philosophy, or the intersection of faith and reason.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
