The Optimism Of Butler's Analogy (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781162894911)

""The Optimism of Butler's Analogy"" is a literary work by Henry Scott Holland, which explores the philosophical and theological concepts presented in the writings of Joseph Butler. Butler's ""Analogy of Religion"" is a seminal work in the field of Christian apologetics, and Holland's book delves into the optimistic worldview presented in Butler's work. The book examines Butler's beliefs about the nature of God, the existence of evil, and the role of reason in understanding religious truth. Holland also considers the relevance of Butler's ideas for contemporary religious thought and explores how they might inform our understanding of faith and morality. Through a careful analysis of Butler's arguments, Holland presents a compelling case for the importance of optimism in religious belief and the power of reason to guide our understanding of the divine. Overall, ""The Optimism of Butler's Analogy"" is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of one of the most influential works in Christian theology.THIS 54 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Oxford Lectures on Philosophy 1910 to 1923, by Henry Scott Holland.
