This book should be in every Christians library. Craigs chapter on the trinity and the incarnation are the literary equivalent to David’s sling and stone.

At 54:45, Bill said, "There are a good number of people doing philosophical theology in our day. But almost no one--actually I'd say no one has attempted to write a systematic, philosophical theology. . . . this is the project I began to work on about two years ago." Very interesting! This sounds like a great and ambitious and fascinating project. May the Lord give you the wisdom to do it well, Bill! But I have to say that Norm Geisler's Systematic Theology Vol. 1 ("Prolegomena & Bibliology" | Bethany, 2002) and Vol. 2 (God & Creation" | Bethany, 2003) were extremely philosophical. Very aristotelian-thomistic in metaphysical and epistemological underpinnings. But also correcting both Aristotle and Aquinas here and there. His volume 3 ("Hamartiology and Soteriology" | Bethany, 2004) was fairly philosophical. It was rather thomistic in its hylomorphism and anthropology but not thomistic in sacramental view of nature and grace. Volume 4 ("Ecclesiology and Eschatology" | Bethany, 2005) not so philosophical, if I recall correctly. We at BastionBooks.com brought the one-volume edition back into print in 2021 and we are working presently on getting the four-volume set back into print. It may not be the *type* of philosophy that Bill prefers, but these volumes are still quite philosophical nonetheless.

Hello, This is Yeshitela from Ethiopia, eastern part of Africa. I'm a recent graduate in chemical engineering and a 4th year student, a candidate, in bachelor of theology at Evangelical Theological College in an online-blended program. And a big fan of these godly men. “Remember them which have the rule over you, who have spoken unto you the word of God: whose faith follow, considering the end of their conversation.” Heb. 13:7. As they wouldn't forget their models and dedicated this marvelous work to them I won't forget their unimaginably great influence upon me. When I was a third year chemical engineering student here, where I live, in Ethiopia, I've introduced with Bill’s Reasonable Faith book and I couldn't believe my eyes because I've seen a great and solid argument or approach that rendered a person like me to study Philosophy in a more and passionate manner. And continued reading of Copleston’s 9 vols History of Philosophy. By now I'm reading this, Philosophical Foundation A Christian Worldview, astounding book and taking notes for my future studies. Thank God for these Christlike men and their tremendous impact.

@Homme45, hey brother Yeshitela, that's great. Philosophy is so important for the faith, also in Ethiopia. I can imagine the environment is not too excited about philosophy. The orthodox in Ethiopia may tell you that the early church fathers already answered those questions, and the evangelicals / pentecostals are not yet so interested in philosophy (as the missionaries to Ethiopia in the 19th / 20th century came from pietist traditions that do not place too much value in human reason and natural theology, while (correctly) holding that the Bible is the word of God. So keep up the good work :-)

A wonderful book, praise God, and I pray it will eventually be translated into German. May I ask, why is there no section on AESTHETICS / BEAUTY in the book? It is such an important topic; our world is on the one side superficially focusing on (almost absolutizing) outward appearance, at the same time most secular philosophers say "beauty does not exist", and lacks the necessary metaphysical foundation (since many still assume we live in a post-metaphysical age). I guess that touches upon the different views on whether universals exist (where Dr. Moreland and Dr. Craig disagree). But even on a fictional account of universals, one could say that objective beauty exists, whether or not we can exactly describe what makes individual objects beautiful. As a Christian, one can say that "God IS beauty/beautiful", but that would need to be explicated. As one christian author said: beauty is important as it uplifts the soul, so we should try to be in an environment that offers some beauty. ("Get beauty into your lives"). Aesthetics surrounds us everywhere, from clothing, furniture, to architecture, etc. It seems that the lack of a metaphysical foundation for beauty in philosophy has led to an increase in ugliness in the modern world, in art, music, cinema etc. Ugliness can - in part - be associated with the demonic and can be used for culture-reevolutionary purposes. Aesthetics also has a lot to do with politics etc. So - there are PLENTY of reasons to write on aesthetics. See Roger Scruton's work, who was a conservative, yet not necessarily a christian. So if there is a 3rd edition, I hope you will include a section on beauty/aesthetics.

Moreland said, “What this did for people [the book] is to role-model that Christians are not afraid of questions. That in fact, we welcome them. All we ask is to have a level playing field. That’s it. That’s really the only thing we ask for, a fair chance to make our case.” I find this claim to be quite untrue. I went to a Christian apologetics conference (Moreland, Clay, Hazen) and no one would talk to me on the record. “Why should I give you a platform for your ideas?” said Clay. I thought to myself, “Because it a platform for YOUR ideas also, on a level playing field!” I talked to Craig in 2015, and he did not want our conversation posted, AFTER we had a civil discussion on the exact issues that former Christians, like myself, have left the religion. I find that Christian apologetics exist to bolster the faith of believers, not to make valid arguments in the world outside the Christian bubble.

For all their intelligence and learning, both men have steadfastly maintained the unconscionable doctrine that our perfect creator will torment many, if not most, of his human children forever. Not only is this doctrine unbiblical, it is obviously unreasonable. Indeed it is a moral failure in my opinion to believe this doctrine and an even greater one to teach it and an even greater one to steadfastly continue to believe and even teach it despite so much time to realize it's insanity.

@@rn9940 and yet still another christian trying to lie about me. One of my favorite bits of baseless claims is this “through introspection a person is directly aware of the fact that (1) he is an immaterial center of consciousness and volition that uses his body as an instrument to interact with the material world." Funny how this is a completely baseless claim. Neither author supports it with any evidence. They simply declare it to be so. This also shows how this book is a set of apologetics, desperate arguments made for no other reason than to convince the reader that some imaginary being exists, despite all evidence to the countrary. "introspection" is nothing more than opinion.
