it is always nice to be invited...

The subtitle for this book is "an Invitation to Philosophical Theology" and that is what Mr. Miller provides: an approachable orientation to the frequently confusing jumble of philosophies surrounding theology. Mr. Miller lays out the popular arguments in laymanfs terms, offers a few facts about who did the pioneering work and then moves on to some of the objections surrounding each theory. The writing is lucid and clear: very easy to understand. The orientation is decidedly Christian. However, Mr. Miller has, I think, done an excellent job of avoiding Christian dogma and chosen instead an approach that is logical and objective.If you are a person who is interested in the question gDoes God exist?h or if you are a Christian who is looking for objective thinking about God or if you are just wanting to drop names like Kant, Descartes and Kierkegaard into everyday conversation, then this is the book for you.
