Love Alone Is Credible by Hans Urs Von Balthasar (in German in 1963; English, 2004 by Ignatius Press, San Fran), small paperback, only 150 pages. Corey, you may like this. Remember we wanted to do a reading club of VB’s larger The Glory of the Lord? Well, this is a sketch of what VB does there.
Deep Empiricism: Kant, Whitehead, and the Necessity of Philosophical Theism by Derek Malone-France (Lexington Books, 2007). Wow. What a cool book. Heavy read. It’s his PhD thesis from Claremont School of Theology. He’s now an assistant prof at George Washington U.
D, you have to get this one. Trust me. You got Iqbal for free online. You’ll have to buy this one. It might be as good as Greg’s thesis. Hmmmm.
In Whom We Live and Move and Have Our Being: Panentheistic Reflections on God’s Presence in a Scientific World edited by Philip Clayton & Arthur Peacocke (Eerdmans, 2004). A must read. Seriously, folks. Don’t even think about not getting this.
Watcha all got going?

| Posted 11/28/2007 4:13 PM (GMT -6) | | I wish I could focus on three books. I've got about 20 on my headboard. I pick something different way too often. But I'm really liking Greg's new book and "Does God have a Future." I love Sanders' stuff in that book.
Because of discussions on the board, here, I've been meaning to re-read Noah Porter's chapters on Relation and Being for some insight in to categorizing "thoughts." I used to think of thoughts as beings since they are "products" of mind. But I'm beginning to wonder if different kinds of thoughts (deduction, analogical reasoning, classification, imagination, etc) are more like diverse modes of conscious states. If so, then intellectual states are like sentient states, to my mind. We wouldn't call "sad" a being would we? If not, both intellectual and sentient states would be more like accidental attributes. That's where I tend to lean for now. I hope I can find time to read those chapters again, though. Porter is good at really making you go deep into fundamentals. I also wanna get back into that book "The divine attributes."
