In this lecture, delivered at the autumn school "Philosophical Foundations of the Philosophy of Religion" (November 14–16, 2022) at the Iranian Institute of Philosophy, Kaveh Behbahani examines the relationship between critical thinking and the philosophy of religion.
Emphasizing the importance of critique as a philosophical tool, Behbahani demonstrates how critical thinking can evaluate the foundations, claims, and arguments within the field of philosophy of religion. This discussion takes shape within a context aimed at clarifying the philosophical foundations of the philosophy of religion, helping the audience to view the relationship between reason, critique, and faith with greater precision.
The significance of this lecture lies in its focus, rather than broad generalizations, on the specific role of critical thinking in confronting issues in the philosophy of religion, making it an illuminating resource for philosophy students, those interested in the philosophy of religion, and anyone concerned with rational critique in the domain of religion.
