The white rabbit to lead out of rationalism
Start with Doug Jones. Here is a really helpful list of links to his writing.
Then, for those who aren’t going to find and read Theology After Wittgenstein by Fergus Kerr, consider this great help from another blogger:
- into the mire!
- Theology After Wittgenstein 1
- Theology After Wittgenstein 2
- Theology After Wittgenstein 3
- Little Mortal Absolutes
- “Epistemological Robinson Crusoes”
- Theology After Wittgenstein 4
- Theology After Wittgenstein 5
- Primacy of the Intellect?
These aren’t complete. I’ve just finished the book so I might start up where he leaves off. We’ll see.

Mark, please do! I got to the end of the book, but never made time to blog on it, and can’t see that happening for a while. It’s great stuff.

Joel, can you tell me anything about the book?

I don’t have much time, but briefly, it is about the impossibility of predicting the future and the sham of ‘expertise’ that is out there in many fields. It’s much, much broader than that though. He is a modern skeptic and a fascinating read. Wish I had more time – just Google it!
