What Can We Believe?

By Vergilius Ture Anselm Ferm

Book Overview

""What Can We Believe?"" is a philosophical inquiry into the nature of belief and its role in human life. Written by Vergilius Ferm, a prominent American philosopher and theologian, the book explores the various ways in which beliefs are formed, maintained, and challenged in different contexts, including religion, science, politics, and ethics. Drawing on a wide range of sources from ancient philosophy to contemporary psychology, Ferm offers a nuanced and insightful analysis of the complexities of belief, arguing that while beliefs can be both empowering and limiting, they are ultimately necessary for human flourishing. The book is written in a clear and accessible style, making it suitable for both scholars and general readers interested in the nature of belief and its significance for our lives.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
