Poythress writes, "Our logic reflects God’s logic" (page 64) and "God’s logic is a loving logic" (page 89).
He goes over the top with this comment about "idolatry" on page 84, which appears to be his main message:
"Christians too have become massively guilty by being captive to the idolatry in which logic is regarded as impersonal. Within this captivity we take for granted the benefits and beauties of rationality for which we should be filled with gratitude and praise to God."
As a Christian I find this guilt-tripping unacceptable given Romans 8:1.
Poythress realizes that assuming the Trinity leads to a contradiction in FOL=. In spite of that he keeps referring to FOL= as reflecting "God's logic" and he doesn't look for alternative logics that might support the Trinity.
There is not much of value in this book either from a logical or a theological perspective..… (mer)
