Aims

Object
The aim of this course is to elucidate the reciprocal relationships between the human faculty of reason and Christian faith. Starting from a reflection about the expression "religious sciences", a first part will propose a typology of the various forms of rationality, with the place reserved to a certain "faith" in each of them. A second part will be dedicated to the various modalities of believing at a philosophical level as well as in the context of the established religions. Finally, the particularity of Christian faith will be analysed with the "reasons" that one may have today in opting for that particular tradition.

Content and teaching methods

Summary: identical with the "Object"
