Divine Hiddenness: Would More Miracles Solve the Problem?
Heythrop Journal 54 (2):261-267 (2013)
| Abstract | This article addresses the question of whether God's existence would be obvious to everyone if God performed more miracles. I conclude that it would not be so. I look at cases where people have been confronted with what they believe to be miracles and have either not come to believe in God, or have come to intellectual belief in God but declined to follow him. God's existence could be made undeniable not by spectacular signs, but only by God impressing his existence upon us in a direct, non-propositional way | |||||||||
