Skepticism, Relativism, and Religious Knowledge

More about the book

The book explores the interplay between skepticism and relativism in the context of religious knowledge, particularly following the decline of classical foundationalism. It critiques responses from Karl Barth and Reformed epistemology while proposing a Kierkegaardian approach informed by Wittgenstein. This approach emphasizes a shared rationality model to address disagreements, advocating for a balance between doubt and belief to avoid a pervasive skepticism about rationality. Ultimately, it posits that overcoming skepticism and relativism is essential for achieving a non-alienated understanding of faith and truth.
