Philosophy and Theology: An Introduction

This research explores the nexus between Philosophy and Theology. Beginning with asking the question whether theology is "poor" or not. It proceeds by suggesting that ignorance, which has become so fashionable is probably the most challenging problem in this postmodern period and as such it can be eliminated through scientific research, critical thinking and securing sound knowledge. It state: Ignorance remains the main work of academics and intellectuals, whether in the academic or in politics, to remove to resist, to defeat, to alleviate and to expose at all cost. Ignorance in Africa remains our biggest challenge - not corruption - as many believe ignorance has eaten and continues to eat into the very fabric of our societies at all levels. Ignorance is the opposite of scientific knowledge- It (ignorance) is the breeding space of superficiality, which destroyed Africa and continues to do the same ignorance is taking on board foreign ideas uncritically, This book puts together several essays in Philosophy, Theology and show the nexus between them in this light?Key words: Philosophy, Theology, Epistemology, Ontology, Truth, Doubt, God, logic, critical thinking
