Stanley L. Jaki.

The existence of God has been the topic of countless essays, books, and debates. Proofs have been offered, proofs have been questioned, proofs have been rejected.

Many banished God from the scene. Some declared Him dead, still others duly buried Him. Still it remains impossible to exorcise the question: Is there a God?

Meanwhile little systematic attention has been paid to the factors that keep alive the question: Is there a God?

This question arises in many forms, of which three principal ones are discussed in this book. They relate to the fact that all knowledge is prompted by finite entities; that human activity is invariable goal-seeking; and that moral norms cannot be evaded even in an amoral age.

Throughout this book the author insists that before one looks for a formal proof of the existence of God, one has to focus on the reasons why the question – Is there a God? – keeps challenging any honest mind and decent heart.
