INTRODUCTION TO CHRISTIAN PHILOSOPHY

CHAPTER 1

CHRISTIANITY AND PHILOSOPHY

What is the relation of Christianity to philosophy?
In this chapter we shall examine this problem.
We shall examined what is Christianity and what is philosophy and
the relation of Christianity to philosophy.
There are two major problems connected with this relation:
(1) why is there a conflict between Christianity and philosophy and
(2) is a Christian philosophy possible?
We will conclude this introductory chapter with a survey of history of western thought
and the survey of the history of Greek philosophy.
