In his widely praised <i>Warranted Christian Belief</i> (Oxford, 2000) Alvin Plantinga discussed in great depth and at great length the question of the rationality, or sensibility, of Christian belief. In this book Plantinga presents the same ideas in a briefer, more accessible fashion.<br><br>Recognised worldwide as a leading Christian philosopher, Plantinga probes what exactly is meant by the claim that religious - and specifically Christian - belief is irrational and cannot sensibly be held. He argues that the criticisms of such well-known atheists as Richard Dawkins, Daniel Dennett, Sam Harris, and Christopher Hitchens are completely wrong. Finally, Plantinga addresses several potential ¿defeaters¿ to Christian belief - pluralism, science, evil and suffering - and shows how they fail to successfully defeat rational Christian belief.
