Additional Book Details

<p>This book presents Hartshorne's philosophical theology briefly, simply, and vividly.</p><p>Throughout the centuries some of the world's most brilliant philosophers and theologians have held and perpetuated six beliefs that give the word God a meaning untrue to its import in sacred writings or in active religious devotion:</p><p>God is absolutely perfect and therefore unchangeable,<br/>2.omnipotence,<br/>3.omniscience,<br/>4.God's unsympathetic goodness,<br/>5.immortality as a career after death, and<br/>6.revelation as infalliable.</p><p> Charles Hartshorne deals with these six theological mistakes from the standpoint of his process theology.</p><p>Hartshorne says, "The book is unacademic in so far as I am capable of being that." Only a master like Hartshorne could present such sophisticated ideas so simply. This book offers an option for religious belief not heretofore available to lay people.</p>
