I have likewise always appreciated your kindness and civility. <br /><br />Regarding your question: I've thought a lot about this question since you asked it, but I still have trouble answering it. Part of the problem is that it's hard to find a Christian philosopher of religion with comparable maturity, depth, and scope in their work. Plantinga and Swinburne are agenda-setting, big-picture guys who raised the standards of clarity and rigor in philosophy of religion; it' s hard to find comparable philosophers of religion in these respects. Perhaps the philosophers who come closest are Peter van Inwagen, Robert M. Adams, and Linda Zagzebski.<br /><br />Best,<br />EAexapologisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09915579495149582531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31835720.post-1872655814003221612010-02-06T08:58:02.768-08:002010-02-06T08:58:02.768-08:00I really want to read his stuff someday.

Out of curiousity, who would you say is the greatest unretired Christian philosopher of religion? <br /><br />One thing I've always admired about you, Ex, is that you are not hateful towards those that disagree with you. In a blogosphere filled with ideologues and their polemics that is refreshing.Ronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12904551242524278438noreply@blogger.com
