In this book, William J.Hoye uses the phenomenon of emergence - the way higher forms of existence arise from a collection of simpler interactions - as a framework for understanding and defending the concept of eternal life, showing howit 'emerges' fromour present life, our human longing for fulfilment and happiness, and our striving for knowledge of reality. Hoye uses the work of Karl Rahner and Thomas Aquinas to explore questions concerning suffering, the ultimate relevance of morality, and how the fundamental idea of responsibility changes when viewed eschatologically. Contemporary reasons for denying an afterlife are examined critically and extensively. This book will be of great interest to those studying systematic theology, theological anthropology, and Catholic theology"--$$cProvided by publisher. 000911242 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000911242 61020 $$aCatholic Church$$xDoctrines. 000911242 650_0 $$aFuture life$$xChristianity. 000911242 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aHoye, William J.$$tEmergence of eternal life.$$dCambridge : Cambridge University Press, 2013$$hviii, 295 pages$$z9781107041219$$w(DLC) 2013026463 000911242 852__ $$bebk 000911242 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=1394593$$zOnline Access 000911242 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:911242$$pGLOBAL_SET 000911242 980__ $$aEBOOK 000911242 980__ $$aBIB 000911242 982__ $$aEbook 000911242 983__ $$aOnline
