Publisher's Synopsis
Epistemics of Divine Reality investigates the question "What do knowledge claims of God involve?" It is a philosophical analysis of the epistemic dynamics and foundations of religious philosophies and theological interpretations. Through complex and strong philosophical arguments it unravels the epistemic dynamics behind views such as Grecian monism, Upanisadic advaitism, pantheism, panentheism, polytheism, and logical positivism. It also surveys the fideistic traditions such as Kierkegaardian existentialism, neo-orthodoxy, foundationalism, and rational fideism, and argues for the epistemic method of rational fideism. The book chiefly investigates the rational, the empirical, and the fideistic epistemics of divine reality."What do knowledge claims of God involve?" Do people really "know" God when they make claims to knowledge of divinity; or is it mere self-wishing or self-projection. Why do religious philosophies differ? What does Indian philosophy teach about the validity of knowledge claims? What about the Greeks, the Continentals, the Empiricists, and the Fideists? This book will take you through an engaging journey through the great road taken by the stars of history.
