Richard Swinburne argues that the statement God exists is not self-contradictory or meaningless, carefully examining the classical divine attributes — omnipotence, omniscience, perfect freedom, eternal existence, and moral perfection — and assessing whether they form a consistent and intelligible whole. Written with the precision and rigor characteristic of Oxford analytic philosophy, the work dismantles objections from both atheist philosophers and theologians who question the very intelligibility of theistic language. Swinburne instructs readers in the tools of philosophical logic and linguistic analysis, applying them methodically to centuries-old theological concepts to illuminate their rational foundations. This foundational text, the first volume in his celebrated trilogy on the philosophy of theism, remains essential reading for anyone engaged with the intersection of faith, reason, and metaphysics.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48887923605723,"sku":"2026200007948-SECONDHAND","price":30.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/471b7cf4-0ef3-42c9-8178-a3db162927d1.png?v=1781749457","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200007948-secondhand-the-coherence-of-theism","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
