Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Pascal, the brilliant mathematician, physicist, and engineer, presents in his posthumously titled Pensees, his philosophy of religion and a paradox rich and challenging defense of Christian faith. Says Pascal, "Knowledge has two extremes which meet; one is the pure natural ignorance of every man at birth, the other is the extreme reached by great minds who run through the whole range of human knowledge, only to find that they know nothing. but it is a wise ignorance which knows itself. Those who stand half-way. pretend to understand everything. they get everything wrong." The book is a collection of unfinished writings; arguments and ideas which he had scribbled, intending to then develop and elaborate. As such, the text is disjointed and even mysterious; statements are abrupt, incomplete, dogmatic. Yet, out of respect for the intellectual accomplishments of the great French mathematician, these notes were published essentially as he had left them. They contain many gems; profound statements which stand like islands in a sea of sometimes jumbled thoughts. Pascal's themes are: the nature of human knowledge, the affliction of pride, the blindness and tyranny of self, the boundaries of reason, the hiddenness of God, and his own argument for "wagering" not only on God, but on the Christian faith. Two things are obvious; (1.) the arguments are not in the form in which Pascal intended to offer them, therefore, (2.) this is not a definitive apologetic. However, Pascal's arguments are rather unique and as such they are interesting even in their [often] crude form. Read this book in conjunction with the writings of C.S. Lewis, Augustine, or Sundar Singh. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.…

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. "Pensees" is a monumental collection of fragments and reflections by the 17th-century polymath Blaise Pascal. Intended as a comprehensive defense of the Christian faith, this work represents some of the most influential thinking in the history of Western philosophy and theology. Pascal explores the dual nature of humanity-our inherent "misery" without God and our "grandeur" through faith-while providing a sharp critique of indifference and secular skepticism.In this volume, readers encounter Pascal's rigorous intellectual approach to spirituality, including the famous "Pascal's Wager," which applies logical probability to the existence of the divine. The text delves into the limitations of human reason, the psychological complexities of the heart, and the necessity of grace. Written with the precision of a mathematician and the passion of a mystic, "Pensees" remains a profound meditation on the search for meaning.This classic work is essential for anyone interested in philosophy of religion, Christian apologetics, or the historical development of existential thought. Pascal's observations on the human psyche continue to resonate, offering timeless insights into the struggles and aspirations of the soul.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
