The Doctrine of the Trinity in the Works of John Richardson Illingworth and William Temple, and the Implications for Contemporary Trinitarian Theology
Author: Richard Hoskins
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 392
Book Description
This work illustrates that theologians John Richardson Illingworth and William Temple represent, paradigmatically, the main strands of trinitarian theology found in the eastern and western churches. The extent to which Illingworth represents a so-called social trinitarian approach, a Temple a so-called psychological one is examined. The book is theological rather than biographical, and as such it studies their respective trinitarian theologies. It reveals not only that English theology has something important to offer, but that a comparison of two of its representatives from different generations opens up aspects of the relationship. These findings are used in conversation with the contemporary trinitarian scene.

Dictionary Of Atheism Skepticism & Humanism
Author: Bill Cooke
Publisher: Prometheus Books
ISBN: 1615923659
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 607
Book Description
In the tradition of Voltaire''s Philosophical Dictionary, Ambrose Bierce''s Devil''s Dictionary, and Joseph McCabe''s Rationalist Encyclopedia, this accessible dictionary addresses the contemporary need for a reference book that succinctly summarizes the key concepts, current terminology, and major contributions of influential thinkers broadly associated with atheism, skepticism, and humanism. In the preface, author Bill Cooke notes that his work is intended "for freethinkers in the broadest sense of the word: people who like to think for themselves and not according to the preplanned routes set by others." This dictionary will serve as a guide for all those people striving to lead fulfilling, morally responsible lives without religious belief. Readers are offered a wide range of concepts, from ancient, well-known notions such as God, free will, and evil to new concepts such as "eupraxsophy." Also included are current "buzzwords" that have some bearing on the freethought worldview such as "metrosexual." The names of many people whose lives or work reflect freethought principles form a major portion of the entries. Finally, a humanist calendar is included, on which events of interest to freethinkers are noted. This unique, accessible, and highly informative work will be a welcome addition to the libraries of open-minded people of all philosophic persuasions.
