Re: On the Importance of Evidence for an Emerging Faith

Re: On the Importance of Evidence for an Emerging Faith

The notion behind the piece I wrote was a matter of reformulating the role of evidence for faith. I would like to move away from the empiricist tradition that dominates Christian discussions of evidence.

I wholeheartedly agree. I was just curious if there is an implication with a move away from realism into “something else” which necessitates an abandonment of a notion of an extant reality beyond our perceptions, assumptions and points of view. I probably over-simplified (re: G-d as Platonic Form) in an effort to keep the question short.

Thanks,
