Divine foreknowledge and human freedom : the coherence of theism : omniscience

---

In books of this sort some introductory word is typically said concerning the notion of "coherence" and its application to theism. Following this pattern, the question I wish to raise is whether it is rational to embrace theism even in the face of unanswerable arguments for the incoherence of theism. That is to say, if as the result of our inquiry we are forced to conclude that we are unable to find any acceptable solution to the difficulty at issue, are we compelled, if we are to remain rational, to abandon our theistic belief? This question is of no little significance, since non-theists of late are insisting that the question of the coherence of theism be raised prior to the question of grounds for theism and that should the answer to the first question be negative, then the second question becomes superfluous, since no amount of evidence can go to establish that an incoherent state of affairs obtains. I, on the other hand, wish to argue that theistic belief may be and is rational even in the face of arguments for the incoherence of theism which the theist cannot answer.
