Abstract

LAUNONEN AND MULLINS ARGUE THAT IF CLASSICAL THEISM IS TRUE, HUMAN COGNITION IS LIKELY NOT THEISM-TRACKING, AT LEAST, GIVEN WHAT WE KNOW FROM COGNITIVE SCIENCE OF RELIGION. IN THIS ESSAY, WE DEVELOP A MODEL FOR HOW CLASSICAL THEISTS CAN MAKE SENSE OF THE FINDINGS FROM COGNITIVE SCIENCE, WITHOUT ABANDONING THEIR CLASSICAL THEIST COMMITMENTS. WE ALSO PROVIDE AN ARGUMENT FOR HOW OUR MODEL ALIGNS WELL WITH THE CHRISTIAN DOCTRINE OF GENERAL REVELATION.
