Perhaps I gave the wrong impression of my impression of where Dinesh is going. I don't think he is exclusively using reason to oppose the anti-theists but he is making better use of it than many have in the past. IOW's reason and faith are not mutually exclusive and Dinesh has hit on very nice balance.
Regards,
John

I was not being critical of your post, nor was I making the assumption that D’nesh was saying that reason was the same as faith. I strongly support classic apologetics and the use of reasonable arguments. I do not know Flew other than he was a devout atheist that is now a Deist. Deism is about as far as reason can take someone. As I mentioned, Plato and Aristotle knew much about God, but they were still Pagans.
