Synopsis
Is faith just wishful thinking, or can belief in God stand up to reason? In Is Belief Believable? , Christopher Kaczor challenges the idea that faith and reason are incompatible. Drawing from philosophy, theology, and psychology, Kaczor offers clear and compelling arguments that address skepticism head-on. Whether you’re wrestling with doubts, seeking answers to life’s biggest questions, or looking to strengthen your understanding of faith, this book provides a thoughtful and accessible guide to the rational foundations of belief and the removal of obstacles to belief. In Is Belief Believable? , Kaczor presents a bold and intellectually satisfying promise: Belief in God is not only a matter of faith; it’s a rationally defensible proposition. For anyone who has wrestled with questions of faith because of skepticism and materialism, this book offers a roadmap back to belief, especially for those challenged by the New Atheism of Richard Dawkins and Sam Harris. Kaczor tackles major impediments to faith and reveals their inherent contradictions, as well as explaining how philosophical reasoning is compatible with faith. From first principles to belief in the biblical God, Kaczor builds a ladder of robust arguments with insights from philosophers, theologians, and intellectuals, including: Aristotle’s principle of noncontradiction Thomas Aquinas’s five ways to prove God’s existence Eleonore Stump’s narrative answer to the problem of evil Jordan Peterson’s analysis of the psychological significance of the Bible C. S. Lewis’s explanation of the life of Christ as more than a myth With decades of teaching experience and a rich academic background, philosophy professor Kaczor draws on his conversations with renowned thinkers like Peter Kreeft, Alasdair MacIntyre, and Jordan Peterson to craft a book that is both profound and practical. Is Belief Believable? stands apart as a must-read for anyone eager to explore the intersection of reason and revelation, offering fresh insights and timeless wisdom for those who seek to make belief more than just a matter of faith. Whether you’re a devout Catholic, a lapsed believer, or simply someone who enjoys exploring the depths of human reason and divine mystery, this book will be a transformative read that equips you to both challenge your own doubts and confidently engage in meaningful conversations about faith and reason., Christopher Kaczor challenges the idea that faith and reason are incompatible. Drawing from philosophy, theology, and psychology, Kaczor offers clear and compelling arguments that confront doubt head-on. For anyone who has wrestled with questions of faith because of skepticism and materialism, Is Belief Believable? offers a road map back to belief, especially for those challenged by the New Atheism of Richard Dawkins and Sam Harris. Whether you’re wrestling with doubts, seeking answers to life’s biggest questions, or looking to strengthen your understanding of faith, this book provides a thoughtful and accessible guide to the rational foundations of belief and the removal of its obstacles.
