Plato
Tertullian
Hume

Luther
Pascal
Kierkegaard
Kant
James
Wittgenstein
Plantinga

I don’t know much about fideism or these guys, but does this seem accurate for a faithpill chart? Did I miss anyone? Which works should be included?

>>	Anonymous Mon Mar 16 03:09:56 2020 No.14896125 >>14896100 you could include a lot of writers, especially theologians, but im thinking a focus on fideism, emphasis on uncertainty, distrust of rationalism, that kind of thing. So which works from those writers do you have in mind?

Aquinas and Aristotle would be in the opposite direction of that. Carlyle fits in somewhat, I'd recommend his Signs of the Times essays. More obscure thinkers like (Pseudo-)Dionysius, Maximus the Confessor, Eriugena, and Lev Shestov may be helpful.

faith wont make god real, god doesnt exist, imagine such minds being duped into fairy tales, really shows that they werent really that smart after all, but i guess they were a product of their time, so you cant really hold it against them, its like boomers now still being racist

>>	Anonymous Mon Mar 16 10:54:40 2020 No.14897289 >>14897282 Doesn't he explicitly state that he was an agnostic? Plus I don't recall him mentioning God anywhere in his works.
