I gave one exception among others, i.e., the Catholic Church vis-à-vis fideism. There are cosmological arguments from Classical philosophy ( Aristotle), to Judaism ( Maimonides), and Islam ( Avicenna), to cite one aspect of natural theology. Another aspect is to consider consciousness, and the unresolved problems it can present for materialism... https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/i...lity/#InteNatu |
It's not a matter of difficulty. My question was why should I care what the Catholic Church, or any church, says? I stand by my assertion that "Religion depends on unquestioning belief for its very existence." Any statement of the Catholic Church on this issue is hardly from an unbiased view.
