Imaginativity.Calvin Seerveld - 1987 - Faith and Philosophy 4 (1):43-58.details Traditional philosophical uneasiness with imagining activity is documented. The reason adduced for the ontological homelessness of imagination is the inability of most philosophers to recognize the irreducible nature and function of imaginativity.Imagining is then distinguished from sense-perceiving. imaging. and conceptual activity.

Theological Implications of Possible Extraterrestrial Life.Sjoerd L. Bonting - 2003 - Zygon 38 (3):587-602.details Bible and tradition remain silent on intelligent extraterrestrial life, and few modern theologians have expressed themselves on this topic.

Mis-using religious language: Something about Kierkegaard and ‘the myth of God incarnate’: C. Stephen Evans.C. Stephen Evans - 1979 - Religious Studies 15 (2):139-157.details At the risk of a tremendous over-simplification, I believe it is helpful to categorize views of Christianity which have appeared in the west in the last two hundred years into three major groups. First there are the unbelievers, those for whom Christianity is straightforwardly untrue, unknowable, or unbelievable . This group would include those who try to salvage some form of essentially humanistic religion as well as those who simply turn away from religious belief altogether, either to put their ultimate (...)
