Antony Flew’s First Book Since Becoming a Theist
(Probably his last book… he is along in years)
“There Is a God: How the World's Most Notorious Atheist Changed His Mind”

Here is an old post I did from elsewhere on the Net:

British philosopher Antony Flew, once considered the most prominent defender of atheism in the English-speaking world, will accept the Phillip E. Johnson Award for Liberty and Truth on May 11 from Biola University, a Christian university in Southern California.

========================

Flew, 83, argued in books such as God and Philosophy (1966) and The Presumption of Atheism (1984) that one should presuppose atheism until evidence for God proves otherwise. Then, in 2004, the Oxford-educated philosopher stunned the intellectual world by relinquishing his long-held atheism, claiming that the natural sciences supplied evidence for the existence of a designing intelligence. Flew said that he simply had to go where the evidence leads.

========================

The Phillip E. Johnson Award for Liberty and Truth was given to Flew for his lifelong commitment to free and open inquiry and to standing fast against intolerant assaults on freedom of thought and expression. Flew drew scorn from skeptics following his shift in views. When informed that he was this years award winner, he remarked, In light of my work and publications in this area and the criticism I’ve received for changing my position, I appreciate receiving this award.

The above is one of Flew’s most famous books, and since his “conversion” he added a new introduction to it which basically wipes clean his original premise in the book that philosophy and logic disproves God’s existence.

So finally a new book that deals in whole with the evidence from science coupled with logic that has finally made the case for the staunchest atheist from the past 50-years.

There Is a God: How the World's Most Notorious Atheist Changed His Mind is the title. Antony Flew’s co-author is Roy Abraham Varghese, who’s book had a big impact on Flew’s thinking: The Wonder of the World: A Journey from Modern Science to the Mind of God.

So soon I will have a picture of the book up, when the publisher and the author’s decide what it will be. But I wanted to be one of the first to break the news about it.

CHEERS!
