Exploring the evolution of natural theology, Ralph McInerny examines its relevance in modern philosophy through a series of lectures. The first half addresses the decline of philosophical arguments for God's existence, while the latter half advocates for the revival of natural theology amidst contemporary philosophical challenges. This work not only reflects McInerny's insights delivered at the Gifford Lectures but also serves as a defense of philosophical inquiry into the divine, highlighting its importance in today's intellectual landscape.
