| Summary: | “It is certainly the case that much theological talk about revelation has been associated with an anti-rational approach to religious truth; in fact, much of the motivation in modern theology for making revelation a central concept has been to have a starting point immune from the onslaughts of rational criticism, criticism based on biblical studies, the history of religions, hostile world views, and epistemologies, and the demands of logic and morality. But the idea of revelation as such has no necessary connection with irrational approaches in the quest for truth.” |
