Nature of Faith, Belief, RationalityAbstract
My aim in this paper is to survey the nature of religious faith and offer a reasonable characterization of what is faith in theistic God. In order to accomplish this goal, in the first section of this paper, I present an introduction to this problem; in the second section, I uphold the tradition view of faith, according to which faith is composed by a doxastic component (i.e. believing-that there is a God) and by a non doxastic component (i.e. believing-in God). In the last section, I present and try to deal with some major objection to this traditional notion of faith.Downloads
