In this book Anthony O’Hear examines the reasons that are given for religious faith. His approach is firmly within the classical tradition of natural theology, but an underlying theme is the differences between the personal Creator of the Bible or the Koran and a God conceived of as the indeterminate ground of everything determinate. Drawing on several religious traditions and on the resources of contemporary philosophy, specific chapters analyse the nature of religious faith and of religious experience. They examine connections between religion and morality, and religion and human knowledge – the cosmological, teleological and ontological arguments, process thought, and the problem that evil presents for religion. The final chapter returns to the inherently dogmatic nature of religious faith and concludes that rational people should look beyond religion for the fulfilment of their spiritual needs.

'THOSE WHO TELL STORIES RULE SOCIETY.'' PLATO.... So who today are our principal storytellers? Not philosophers, but filmmakers. For those who know both the enormous entertainment potential and the culture-shaping power of film, this book will stir mind and imagination. For great stories freight world-sized ideas, ideas worthy of contemplation and conversation. Great cinema inspires wonder. But another philosopher, Aristotle, reminds us that wonder is the true source of philosophy. So perhaps Plato or Aristotle might have a shot at ruling society, even today - if they took an interest in film. These fourteen essays offer wonderful reflection on classic and contemporary films following several major philosophical themes, all within the context of Christian faith: the human condition, the human mind and the nature of knowing, the moral life, and faith and religion. Citizen Kane, Big Fish, Pretty Woman, Legends of the Fall and The Bridges of Madison County contribute to an in-depth consideration of the human condition. The Truman Show, The Matrix, Being John Malkovich and It's a Wonderful Life, among others, illuminate reflection on the human mind and the nature of knowing. Looking at the moral life, contributors interact with such notable films as Pleasantville, Bowling for Columbine, Mystic River and The Silence of the Lambs. The final section pursues the theme of faith and religion traced through a number of Hong Kong martial arts films, Contact, 2001: A Space Odyssey and U2's music documentary, Rattle and Hum. A veritable film festival for all those who want to nurture the wonder of philosophical inquiry and the love of Christian theology through an engagement with big ideas on the big screen.

The concern of this book is the nature of religious belief and the ways in which philosophical enquiry is related to it. Six chapters present the positive arguments the author wishes to put forward to discusses religion and rationality, scepticism about religion, language-games, belief and the loss of belief. The remaining chapters include criticisms of some contemporary philosophers of religion in the light of the earlier discussions, and the implications for more specific topics, such as religious education, are investigated. The book ends with a general attempt to say something about the character of philosophical enquiry, and to show how important it is to realise this character in the philosophy of religion.

When this book was originally published in 1957 there had been lively debates on the air and in the press about the bearing of modern philosophy upon Christianity, but there had been relatively little sustained discussion of the subject. This book of essays was the product of a small group of Oxford philosophers and theologians, who had met and talked informally for some years before writing it. It is an attempt to discuss with care and candour some of the problems raised for Christian belief by contemporary analytical philosophy. In asking the questions raised, this book makes articulate the perplexities of many intelligent people, both believers and unbelievers. The contributors concentrate on the way such concepts as God, Revelation, the Soul, Grace are actually used rather than asserting or denying some very general theory of meaning.

Under the titles of Truth, Virtue, Freedom, Optimism, Beauty and Highest Good, Mr. Brewster discusses in pleasing style and from a spiritualistic standpoint some of the vital problems of religion and ethics. His book is a series of sketches on philosophical themes rather than an attempt to develop a philosophical system. He emphasizes the voluntary element in knowledge, and holds that for some opinions at any rate, such as those with which religion is concerned, "there is a practical and momentous alternative for everyone." While Mr. Brewster's voluntarism and his philosophy of faith would seem more congenial with indeterminism, it is interesting to notice that in his discussion of freedom he defends the deterministic position. The old analogy of the composition of forces is resorted to, and thus "the encumbrance of an incredible and compromising dogma," that of indeterminism, is removed. Some reservations are made at the end of the chapter; in fact, the doctrine that volition is determined by the strongest motive seems to be given up when it is said that "the weaker motive may often in this way, by being taken at the flood, become the stronger one at the critical moment. ... If the wish be present, even though relatively feeble, means may be found to make it prevail." David can still slay the giant with his sling, before the latter closes upon him. If Mr. Brewster is chargeable with inconsistency in his treatment of freedom, he is at least not the only writer on this subject against whom the accusation may be made. Especially interesting is the chapter on Beauty, in which the author contends that no naturalistic explanation of beauty can be adequate. Beauty is "an effluence we know not whence unless it comes from the soul of the universe." Beauty is "the promise of God impressed upon his works," and for the man of faith "the universe exists mainly for beauty and for love." -The Princeton Theological Review, Volume 14 [1916]
