It is conducted, however, in an atmosphere of respect and reverence. I for one certainly believe in the existence of God, although I am amused by many "proofs" for his existence. I do not believe in the divinity of Christ, though I believe in his historical existence and that he was a profound (though now, often misinterpreted) thinker. See e.g. the "Grand Inquisitor" chapter of Dostoyevsky's <em>The Brothers Karamazov</em>. Believing in God is not incompatible with also believing in science, physics, chemistry, medicine and other artifacts and precipitates of early-21st century culture. One of the (many) tasks for analytic theology is to come up with explanations for why this is so. Thanks for the Q!

I cannot seem to find the definition anywhere! Thank you so very much, Melisa Hi, I was wondering if you could please give me a basic and understandable definition of analytic theology?
