Middle Way to God

Zusatztext The text shows powerful sensitivity to the life-setting of religious belief formation, and its central claims are developed clearly and persuasively Klappentext Garth Hallett explores the thesis that if belief in other minds is rational and true (as it surely is), so too is belief in God. When appropriately restricted to a single, sound, other minds belief, his thesis -- that charts a 'middle way' between rival positions laid out by Alvin Plantinga and Richard Swinburne -- makes a strong case that belief in God and belief in other minds is epistemically comparable. Clearly and accessibly written, this work should appeal to students and scholars in philosophy of religion and theology.
