Hardcover. 1st edition. xii, [1], 175 p.; 21 cm. (A spectrum book) 1. Introduction -- 2. Logical positivism and religion: the elimination of metaphysics; the elimination of theology; the status of the verifiability principle -- 3. Conceptual analysis and religion -- 4. Defining "religious belief" -- 5. The problem of cognitivity: issue of cognitive significance; literal, non-literal, and paradoxical religious sentences; the doctrine of analogical predication and the appeal to symbolic meaning -- 6. Left-wing response: the challenge; religion as a "Blik": Hare & Hume; J.J.C. Smart's analysis of religion; religion as "retreat into silence": McPherson; religion and not theology: R. F. Holland; A conative theory of religion: Braithwaite and Hepburn; Alasdair MacIntyre's analysis of religion -- 7. The right-wing response: Basil Mitchell, John Hick, I. M. Crombie -- 8. The problem of religous knowledge: the problem of epistemology; criteria for knowledge; formal knowledge and factual knowledge; the appeal to religious experience; subjectivity and religious knowledge: Augustine, Kierkegaard and Tillich; historical religious claims; the classical arguments of God's existence: teleological, cosmological, and ontological -- 9. Conclusion -- Index. -- `A student who would enjoy tracing the various steps in the positivist attack and the theologian's feints and countermoves will find [this book].useful. Noncognitivist accounts of religious meaning are like a coroner's report upon a man who hasn't had an accident yet.That the religious beliefs may be conjunctively false is logically possible; that they are cognitively vacuous is absurd.'
