Reformed Epistemology
Reformed Epistemology is a philosophical perspective that argues belief in God can be rational and justified without the need for evidence or arguments. It suggests that certain beliefs, like faith in God, can be properly basic, meaning they are foundational and do not require external justification. This view is often associated with the work of philosophers like Alvin Plantinga.
Proponents of Reformed Epistemology maintain that individuals can have a direct awareness of God through personal experience or intuition. This approach challenges traditional evidentialist views, which assert that beliefs must be supported by evidence to be considered rational.
