Work


Rauser wrote a guide to The Shack in his companion volume Finding God in the Shack (Paternoster, 2009). In the book Rauser responds to many of the objections raised by critics like Chuck Colson and Albert Mohler.[5][6] Rauser has written a book with the ex-Christian minister and atheist polemicist John W. Loftus and debated him on radio.[7] Rauser has attempted to persuade people to practise analytic philosophy.[8]


Reception


Eugene H. Peterson praised Rauser as a "skilled and accessible theologian."[9] Dean Zimmerman praised Rauser as having the "intellectual honesty to face up to the genuine difficulties confronting his faith." Rauser and Peter Enns have discussed their views on biblical inerrancy.[10][11]

Randal Rauser's highly readable and robust essay on "Theology as a Bull Session" makes an interesting case for analytic theology. Elaborating on the central thought of Harry Frankfurt's (now) famous essay "On Bullshit", Rauser argues that the emphasis on clarity typical of analytic philosophy will provide some protection against the tide of bullshit that is licensed (no doubt unintentionally) by theology in the style of Sally McFague and Jurgen Moltmann. I am readily persuaded by this contention, but it seems to me that the counters to bullshit -- clarity of expression, rigor of argument and honesty of intellectual purpose -- are merits in ALL intellectual inquiry and not the preserve of a distinctive theological method. Further, by quoting Maes and Schaubroek on this point Rauser effectively agrees, since their reference is to 'academic discourse' in general (p. 73).
