Introduction to Christian Philosophy

1 credits · Divinity School

Students in this course will begin by inquiring into the nature of philosophy. In light of this beginning point, the students will then go on to investigate several ideas in philosophy: 1) the possibility of philosophic knowledge, 2) natural law, 3) moral absolutes, 4) the relationships between our notions of God and demonstrations of God's existence, 5) Christian aesthetics, 6) philosophical responses to revelation mysticism, and 7) philosophical contemplation as an ongoing and meaningful part of Christian life
