traditions. The importance of miracles also applies to Christianity. The
Gospels record thirty-five miracles that Jesus is said to have
performed, including twenty-three miraculous healings and nine nature
miracles (for example, stilling a storm and turning water into wine). At
the heart of Christian faith lies the story of Jesus’ resurrection from
the dead. However, the factuality of these events has been increasingly
problematised, especially since the period of the Enlightenment. In this
study, it is argued that the current debate between science-oriented
critics of miracles and their religious opponents focuses predominantly
on the question of factuality and evidence at the loss of the religious
meaning of miracles. The suggestion that science and religion would be
opposite approaches is denied in a proposal of a balanced hermeneutical
approach of miracles that does justice to scientific findings, religious
texts and experience. |  Aggiungi al Carrello |
