Over the years Nicholas Rescher has published various essays on religious issues from a philosophical point of view. The chapters of the present volume collect these together, joining to them four further pieces which appear here for the first time (Chapters 3, 7, and 8). While these studies certainly do not constitute a system of religious philosophy, they do combine to give a vivid picture of a well-defined point of view on the subject -- the viewpoint of a Roman Catholic philosopher who, in the longstanding manner of this tradition, seeks to harmonise the commitments of faith with the fruits of inquiry proceeding under the auspices of reason.
