Although many Westerners might say no, there are also many critically minded individuals who entertain what John Polkinghorne calls a ""wistful wariness"" toward religion--they feel unable to accept religion on rational grounds yet cannot dismiss it completely. Polkinghorne, both a particle physicist and Anglican priest, here explores just what rational grounds there could be for Christian beliefs, maintaining that the quest for motivated understanding is a concern shared by scientists and religious thinkers ali UR - http://public.eblib.com/choice/publicfullrecord.aspx?p=1700212 UR - http://www.myilibrary.com?id=629742 UR - http://www.jstor.org/stable/10.2307/j.ctt7ztf6m UR - http://dx.doi.org/10.1515/9781400863655 UR - http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&db=nlabk&AN=790905 ER -
