    • 2023

      Exploring the interplay between human experience and the divine, this philosophical treatise presents Samuel Butler's unique insights into theology. In "God the Known," he argues that our understanding of God reflects our limited human emotions and experiences. Conversely, "God the Unknown" confronts established religious beliefs, advocating for a more open approach to theological questions. Blending scientific reasoning with philosophical inquiry, Butler encourages critical contemplation of faith and spirituality, making this work a thought-provoking contribution to discussions on humanity's relationship with the divine.
