Not illustrated. 1740 edition. Excerpt: ... i.TITE have gain'd a most wonderful Point VV in the foregoing Chapter, bis qtrx ving the Dinstin&ion between things Above end things Contrary to Reason, and such as of it felt alone is sufficient Not only immediately to decide, but even for ever to Silence the Controversy between us and our Swims Adversaries concerning the Belief of things. above Reason. For the gofy Objection that is or can possibly bepretendedagainst the Belief of things above Reason being the supposed Contrariety of the sameihings to Reason, if it be shewn that to be above Reason involves no such 'Contrariety, then the Objection against the beireFof such things is fairly and wholly removed, and. consequently there remains no Reason why they may not be Believed. So that I cannot but look upon the Substance of my Work as most effectually done already, and those of our Adversaries that have any reasonable Measure of Penetration and Sincerity must needs be sensible of.it. And I dare appeal even to their own Consciences whether they are not. However consider ing ing the importunity of those I have to deal with, as well as the weight of the Cause it self, I shall endeavour the further establishment of it upon some other Considerations, whereby I shall also give further Confirmation, and so repay what i am indebted to the Point contended for in the preceding Chapter, since we may as well argue backwards from the Believableness of things above Reason to their not Contrariety, as forwards from their not Contrariety to their Believableness, the Consequence being full as good, thus, Above Reason Believable, therefore not Contrary, as thus, Above Reason not Contrary, therefore Believable. Now in order to the fuller Conviction and Demonstration of the Believableness of things...

Excerpt from An Account of Reason and Faith: In Relation to the Mysteries of Christianity I alient to by Divine Faith can have a greater obieetive Certainty than what I clearly and difiinfily Perceive or Know, bot only that there is a Pollibility, n0t to fay Danger, of my taking that for a clear and diflinft Perception Which indeed is Nor io, and fo though I can not be deceiv'd in what I do truly know, yet I may be deceiv'd in thinking that I know when I do nor. So that Divine Faith though not more Certain than Knowledge it felf, is yet of greater Certainty than our Knowing Fa cu/tzer, and generally {peaking the Believer goes upon furer grounds than the Man of Reafon and Demontlration. Becaufe his Reafon may po ibly lead him into Error, whereas the 0' ther's Authority cannot. And when they are both in the right, yet llill there will be this dif ference between them, that his Reafon is only no; Decez'v'd, Whereas the Othet's Faith is Injar'. I; la.

Thomas Aquinas has long been understood to have reconciled faith and reason. Typically, he is understood as having provided justification for faith by means of proof, particularly, that the Five Ways prove the existence of God. Under this interpretation, faith becomes a species of justified belief, and the justification for faith rests upon the success of the Five Ways (or, alternatively, on the success of other justificatory evidence). In this book, Creighton Rosental argues that Aquinas¿s account of faith is not one of justified belief, at least as it is understood in contemporary philosophy. Instead, Rosental argues, faith has its own basis for epistemic ¿reasonableness¿ ¿ a reasonableness that does not derive from ordinary evidence or proof. Rather than requiring evidence accessible to the natural light of reason, Aquinas holds that faith has its own sort of ¿evidence¿¿that which results from the light of faith. Aquinas ¿Aristotelianizes¿ faith and argues that faith has the Aristotelian epistemic virtue of certitude, and in so doing reconciles faith and Aristotelian reason, at least as Aristotle was understood by Medieval philosophers. This reconciliation resolves important tensions between Aristotelian science and Christian doctrine. Further, Rosental examines three contemporary accounts of what counts as an epistemically ¿responsible¿ belief (namely, justified belief, practical rationality, and warrant) and argue that under Aquinas¿s account, faith should be counted as rational, and in an important, though modified sense, as justified. Rosental¿s book is an erudite and accessible reading of this most fundamental issue in Thomistic studies.

Too smart to believe in God? The twelve philosophers in this book are too smart not to, and their finely honed reasoning skills and advanced educations are on display as they explain their reasons for believing in Christianity and entering the Roman Catholic Church. Among the twelve converts are well-known professors and writers including Peter Kreeft, Edward Feser, J. Budziszewski, Candace Vogler, and Robert Koons. Each story is unique; yet each one details the various perceptible ways God drew these lovers of wisdom to himself and to the Church. In every case, reason played a primary role. It had to, because being a Catholic philosopher is no easy task when the majority of one's colleagues thinks that religious faith is irrational. Although the reasonableness of the Catholic faith captured the attention of these philosophers and cleared a space into which the seed of supernatural faith could be planted, in each of these essays the attentive reader will find a fully human story. The contributions are not merely collections of arguments; they are stories of grace.
