Jonathan Edwards Confronts the Gods: Christian Theology, Enlightenment Religion, and Non-Christian Faiths - Religion in America
McDermott, Gerald R. (Associate Professor of Religion, Associate Professor of Religion, Roanoke College)
It has been thought that Edwards's polemical arguments were aimed against Arminianism - which denied the Calvinist idea of predestination. The author argues that Edwards's real target was a more influential one, namely deism - the belief in a creator God who does not intervene in His Creation.
