The Christian Faith as a Belief in the World: The Theological Foundations of Rationality

The present article will argue in favour of the option for the Logos made within the Christian tradition.  Extending Ratzinger’s and Milbank’s theology, according to which Christian identity is defined from this  option or this ―primacy‖ of the Logos, we will claim that such an option or presupposition is needed in  order to sustain the use of reason and to found the possibility of a dialogue between different traditions.  According to such a perspective, Christian faith appears as a belief not only in God, but also in His  creation, the world, the truth of which faith can be grasped by humankind and within which faith humankind  can communicate with one another and can live in communion
