An examination of the nature of religion from a philosophical perspective, canvassing classical, mediaeval and modern authors for their views. Even among those who find no evidence for the existence of God, we encounter discussions of the nature of religion and its function.
This book brings together a distinguished group of Catholic philosophers to discuss the relationship between their religious beliefs and their research and scholarly work, They consider such questions as: What is the correct relationship between one's religion and one's research aims and objectives? Does one's religious belief complement, or conflict with, one's scholarship and teaching? To what extent are Christian philosophers motivated in their work by religious faith?
