The Thomistic Institute
Exploring the Evidentialist Argument Against Christian Faith
This chapter delves into the evidentialist argument criticizing Christian faith as irrational due to believing without sufficient evidence, exploring aspects like the existence of God, miracles, and historical events. Aquinas' perspective is presented, focusing on believers' motives for faith such as divine teaching authority, confirmatory signs, and divine instigation, emphasizing the significance of the Holy Spirit. The discussion also addresses objections, evangelization strategies, and the importance of personal aspects in faith, highlighting the complexity of the conversion process and the essential role of faith in societal functioning.
