On Faith: An Essay on the Philosophy of Religion

di Russell Hasan (Autore)

Russell Hasan, 2025

The purpose of this book is to ask, and answer, a simple yet complicated question: How, and under what conditions, is faith possible? Somewhat ironically, it turns out that this question holds the seeds of its own answer, because the conclusion which the book asserts is that to have faith in something means precisely to place no conditions upon it and to not condition it in any way, and this is how faith is possible. The book discusses math, logic, science, philosophy, religion and theology, all to explore this question: what is faith? If the quest to discover the answer to this question seems interesting to you, please, read on. But the essay then ties this concept of faith into the broader Judeo-Christian narrative of religion, showing how faith, when understood in this rational and logical way, can lead to faith in God. The essay is a self-help book to the extent that it explains having faith in yourself as the choice not to doubt yourself and not to assert failure conditions of yourself, but here, too, it is religious, and shows how and why self-confidence should be grounded in faith in God.
