Publisher's summary


In a whirlwind of 17th-century ideas, science clashed with religion, and materialism threatened to extinguish the light of the spirit. From this crucible emerged the Cambridge Platonists – a group of brilliant theologians and philosophers who defended the power of reason, the existence of the soul, and a universe designed by a divine intelligence.
" Rational Religion - The Cambridge Platonists and the Defense of Faith" dives into the fascinating world of thinkers like Ralph Cudworth and Henry More, exploring their profound arguments against materialism and their search for harmony between faith and science. With clear, engaging prose, this book guides readers through themes including:
  • The Cambridge Platonists' profound belief in reason as a gift from God.
  • Their concept of "innate ideas" – blueprints within the mind for understanding math, morality, and God.
  • Their powerful arguments for the soul as an immaterial spark of the divine.
  • Their insistence that true religion and reason are not enemies but allies.
Discover the profound and enduring legacy of the Cambridge Platonists, whose ideas shaped religious movements, inspired philosophers like Immanuel Kant, and fueled the literary imagination of the Romantics. Prepare to be challenged, inspired, and reminded of the timeless questions that define what it means to be human.
