Title: Reconciling faith and reason
Subtitle: apologists, evangelists, and theologians in a divided church
First published: 2000
Description: "Pope John Paul II's 1998 encyclical Fides et ratio reaffirmed the compatibility of faith and reason. Yet Catholic theology is too often divided between a conservative apologetics which risks becoming a Catholic fundamentalism and an academic theology cut off from the life and faith of the Church. How can Catholics find "common ground" in a divided Church, teaching and reflecting on their faith in a way that is at once critical, faithful to the Catholic tradition, and truly evangelical? In addressing this question, Father Rausch looks at divisive questions of theological method, Scripture and doctrinal development, sexuality, liturgy, and evangelization."--Jacket.
