Description

In Religion and Friendly Fire: Examining Assumptions in Contemporary Philosophy of Religion, D.Z. Phillips presents a provocative look at how philosophical defense can sometimes harm religious thought. This Routledge publication explores the concept of friendly fire, suggesting that uncritical acceptance of empiricism often leads to unintended consequences for religious belief. Phillips challenges the traditional starting point that individual consciousness is the necessary foundation for arguing the existence of an external world or the reality of God. The text examines common assumptions, such as the idea that God is a bodiless person or pure consciousness. By analyzing these philosophical frameworks, the book provides a way to re-examine the claims used to support or defend religious belief systems. This work is a significant resource for students and scholars interested in the intersection of theology and philosophy. It offers a deep look into how contemporary philosophical methods impact the way we understand religion and the arguments used to sustain it.
