Deposed Royalty – Pascal's Anthropological Argument

Deposed Royalty – Pascal's Anthropological Argument

  • Semi-Technical
  • Douglas Groothuis

Groothuis' conviction is that Blaise Pascal’s apologetic orientation is still useful to the church. He starts his argument from the point of the human condition. It is appealing in a psychologized and individualistic culture. Groothuis first notes Pascal’s treatment of the contradictions (greatness and misery) of humanity, then his explanation for this human condition, and finally the form of Pascal's argument.

The reason why Christ chose the hard way of the cross was, among other things, that he saw beyond it. S. J. Reid
