But this conclusion, he contends, need not imply that Christians who believe these doctrines are irrational in doing so. In support of this claim, Anderson develops and defends a model of understanding paradoxical Christian doctrines according to which the presence of such doctrines is unsurprising and adherence to paradoxical doctrines cannot be considered as a serious intellectual obstacle to belief in Christianity.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Paternoster Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42567242383435,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":1425.77,"currency_code":"THB","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0641\/0023\/7387\/files\/9781842274620-1.jpg?v=1783478619","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.co.th\/products\/9781842274620","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Thailand","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
