Terminology Tuesday: Philosophical Theology

Philosophical Theology: Philosophical inquiry into the key beliefs of theologians and concepts of theology. In addition to such topics as arguments for the existence of God, philosophical theologians attempt to analyze such divine attributes as omnipotence, omniscience and eternality and also (with respect to Christianity) to assess the coherence and plausibility of such theological doctrines as the Trinity, the atonement and the incarnation.1
