Philosophy of Religion

This book looks at the basic issues of theological thought: what is religion, why should we be concerned with religion, how do we think about religion, and what do we think about religion?

We use the term "Theology" in a broad sense - not simply the study of God as the word etymologically implies but the study of religion.

This book should be understandable by the reader with very little exposure to religious studies. Yet it is an attempt to cover the subject in considerable depth and completeness. With critical oversight by others of the wiki community, hopefully, it will ultimately be a valuable resource for individuals desiring a solid foundational understanding of the nature of humanity's investigations into the ultimate.
