Perennials (Burpee) by Allan M Armitage

This book seeks to establish the rationality of religion and theology in the contemporary world. It acknowledges the cultural entanglement of both religion and reason whilst not characterizing either as a mere cultural product.

Theology has always required philosophical bases. Moreover, Christian theology has had a dynamic character that enabled it to adapt to more than one philosophy depending on the need of the time (e.g., change from Neo-Platonism to Aristotelianism in the thirteen century). However, this dynamism has been absent since the dawn of modernity, when reason became identified with modern science, to disastrous results. While the advent of postmodernism has brought the limits of to light, it has done nothing to establish the rationality of religion, other than to consider religion as a cultural phenomenon along with science. This book conceives fundamental theology as a discipline that seeks religious truth in the midst of diverse perspectives, ranging from militant atheism to violent religious fanaticism.
