Book Description:

This book explores religious experience as a justifiable reason for religious belief, demonstrating that the three pillars of Critical Realism -- ontological intransitivity, epistemic relativity and judgemental rationality -- can be applied to religion. The three authors are critical realists by philosophical position. They seek to establish a level playing field between religion and secular ideas, which has not existed in the academic world for some generations, in order for reasoned debate to be conducted.
