The Problem Of God In Modern Philosophy (contemporary Religious Thought)
E-Book Overview
Messinese examines the ideas of God at work within modern philosophy, including Descartes, Hume, Kant and Hegel, and demonstrates their contemporary significance for thinking about God. Ultimately, Hegel's thought is the site of greatest opportunity for understanding the relationship and the difference between philosophy and theology. For Hegel, God is understood as "immanent transcendence," and this is the highest achievement of modern philosophy, in contrast to a theology that sees God as pure transcendence in faith.
