Even Plantinga's formulation of his thesis is slightly misleading, since it suggests that he will defend four existential statements when in fact his first and third sub-theses are universal statements. I mention this mistake as a service to all those critics of the book who appear to have read little more than the book jacket. Unfortunately, on the book jacket the last three words are changed from "science and naturalism" to "naturalism and religion," which makes the sub-thesis of deep conflict appear rather easy to defend. ![]() "There is superficial conflict but deep concord between science and religion, in particular theistic religion, and superficial concord but deep conflict between science and naturalism." Alvin Plantinga repeats this formulation of his thesis several times in the book. ![]() ![]() ![]() Tap on the 'Search' button and wait for results. Input the person's name and state of residence.

If I had written a review the first time, I would’ve given this book two stars, maybe two and a half at the most. This was my second time around reading this book. ~o~My Review~o~ “What is the point of being alive if you don’t at least try to do something remarkable?” Love, friendship, and a dead Austro-Hungarian archduke add up to surprising and heart-changing conclusions in this ingeniously layered comic novel about reinventing oneself. ![]() Colin is on a mission to prove The Theorem of Underlying Katherine Predictability, which he hopes will predict the future of any relationship, avenge Dumpees everywhere, and finally win him the girl. ![]() On a road trip miles from home, this anagram-happy, washed-up child prodigy has ten thousand dollars in his pocket, a bloodthirsty feral hog on his trail, and an overweight, Judge Judy-loving best friend riding shotgun–but no Katherines.

The most prevalent brickbat has been that of Orientalism, the Western tendency to tell stories set in Asia or the Middle East and imbue them with a sense of mystery that is based on cliché and stereotype. Whether or not the charge of Orientalism is intended as a slight, there's no question that the artist is adopting (usually in a surface manner) tropes belonging to the Other in order to bring a sense of exoticism to the story. Other criticisms of the book include accusations that it contains racist and sexist imagery. These are all issues that deserve consideration and discussion, but to a large degree, they are also beside the point. ![]() |
