Divine Hiddenness by Daniel Howard-Snyder

New Essays

An anthology in philosophy of religion that investigates the challenge posed by divine hiddenness—the prevalence of reasonable nonbelief and the ambiguity of evidence concerning the divine—to traditional theism. Through a set of debates and analyses, contributors assess the argument from nonresistant nonbelief, consider themes of divine love, relationship, freedom, and epistemic distance, evaluate the evidential weight of religious experience and Bayesian approaches, and propose reasons a deity might remain elusive, along with the implications for faith, skepticism, and religious practice.
