Beyond humanism. 330 8 $a'Humanism and the Death of God' is a critical exploration of secular humanism and its discontents. Through close readings of three exemplary nineteenth-century philosophical naturalists or materialists, who perhaps more than anyone set the stage for our contemporary quandaries when it comes to questions of human nature and moral obligation, Ronald E. Osborn argues that 'the death of God' ultimately tends toward the death of liberal understandings of the human as well. Any fully persuasive defense of humanistic values - including the core humanistic concepts of inviolable dignity, rights, and equality attaching to each individual - requires an essentially religious vision of personhood. Osborn shows such a vision is found in an especially dramatic and historically consequential way in the scandalous particularity of the Christian narrative of God becoming a human. He does not attempt to provide logical proofs for the central claims of Christian humanism along the lines some philosophers might demand. Instead, this study demonstrates how philosophical naturalism or materialism, and secular humanisms and anti-humanisms, might be persuasively read from the perspective of a classically orthodox Christian faith. 330 8 $aThis study argues that certain humanistic values, including belief in human rights and the inherent dignity and value of human persons as persons, are jeopardized by anti-religious forms of naturalism. Osborn explores the thinking of some of the most influential thinkers on anti-religious forms of naturalism - Darwin, Marx, and Nietzsche. 606 $aHumanism 606 $aSecularization (Theology) 606 $aDeath of God theology 606 $aNaturalism$xReligious aspects 606 $aChristianity 615 0$aHumanism. 615 0$aSecularization (Theology) 615 0$aDeath of God theology. 615 0$aNaturalism$xReligious aspects. 615 0$aChristianity. 676 $a211.6 700 $aOsborn$b Ronald E.$f1975-$0953342 801 0$bStDuBDS 801 1$bStDuBDS 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910160345403321 996 $aHumanism and the death of God$92586812 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01151nas 2200373-a 450 001 996199669003316 005 20240413015251.0 011 $a2035-3545 035 $a(CKB)3130000000000194 035 $a(CONSER)sn-95030264- 035 $a(EXLCZ)993130000000000194 100 $a19931013a19909999 --- b 101 0 $aita 200 13$aIl diritto ecclesiastico 210 $aMilano $cGiuffrè Editore$d[1990]- 215 $a1 online resource 300 $aTitle from cover. 300 $aRefereed/Peer-reviewed 311 08$aPrint version: Diritto ecclesiastico (Milan, Italy : 1990) 1128-7772 (DLC)sn 95030264 606 $aEcclesiastical law$zItaly$vPeriodicals 606 $aCanon law$vPeriodicals 606 $aCanon law$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00845910 606 $aEcclesiastical law$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00901292 607 $aItaly$2fast 608 $aPeriodicals.$2fast 615 0$aEcclesiastical law 615 0$aCanon law 615 7$aCanon law. 615 7$aEcclesiastical law. 906 $aJOURNAL 912 $a996199669003316 920 $aexl_impl conversion 996 $aDiritto ecclesiastico$9251756 997 $aUNISA
