Are you puzzled by the nature and system of Aidan Nichols's
theological contribution? Are you looking for a way to renew your
appreciation for Nichols's theological activity? Do you want to
clarify your understanding of Nichols's anthropological view?
Father Engoulou Paul discusses these and many others interesting
matters in this book. He carefully analyzes the different layers on
which Nichols posits his philosophical and theological principles
of order. He explains historically each foundational step from
which Nichols draws his public doctrine of man and God. He arrives
at the conclusion that man arrives at a self-knowledge and the
knowledge of God, to the extent that he makes use of practical,
liturgical, and rational concepts and forms embedded in Philosophy,
theology, and visual art. Designed to be primarily a scholarly
treatment of God's evidences into personal, communal nature of man,
and the meaning of his life-work, this book is also a critical
treatment of secularism and its attendants: liberalism, relativism
and positivism.
A teddy bear sits on his shelf in a store, watching as children

friend watches on as they race, to find the best toy to take home
and embrace. Saddened by watching how greedy they are, our little
toy friend's hopeful dream remains far.
