This book is an attempt at a restatement of the traditional view of
the relation of God to man. In opposition to humanism which
proposes a religion of pure humanity, and to the theology of crisis
which, so to speak, teaches a religion of pure Deity, it maintains
a view of religion and theology which holds that the notions of
humanity and Deity can not be separated without making them
unintelligible. This view makes religion not merely a matter of
faith and emotion but of reason as well. The development of this
thesis involves looking again at the relation of dogmatic to
rational theology and reinterpreting the latter. An examination of
the historic proofs for the existence of God and an axiological
interpretation of the entire theistic argument constitute the heart
of the book. In pursuance of this programme the book includes a
study of such topics as language, myth, symbolism, logic, intuition
and creed. Finally, after taking up the problems of religious
knowledge, it discusses religion and science in contemporary
thought, and the relation of religion to the humanities.
