Since at least the Enlightenment there has been an uneasy relationship between faith and philosophy, and in this book, the author re-visits mainstream philosophy of religion. Philosophys traditional claim to a clear or more fundamental view of things can stand in the way of fruitful engagement: whether it is the penetrating clarity of analytic skepticism or the voyeuristic power of suspicion. Each claims to "see through" faith in its own way. This volume seeks to read the mood of contemporary philosophical challenge to the Christian faith and to explore the articulated limits of that response. Philosophical responses alone are insufficient. Suspicion is a scalpel to faith because it can be deeply challenging and discomfiting. But it can also bring insight and healing if faith will respond, on the one hand, with openness to the challenge of atheistic suspicion, and on the other hand, with faithfulness to its own theological resources and its own prophetic potential.
