What is philosophy? What is history? Is much of what we have been taught false concerning these two? Author James Stroud not only breaks down the often neglected field of philosophy of history but shows why much of what we have taken for granted in the subject of --Origins-- belongs just as much in the field of history as it does in science. Supporting an open-philosophy of history versus the current closed-philosophy in place, Stroud systematically shows why the paradigm of Naturalism is most likely false and should therefore not influence the way the historian is forced to interpret the data. *** 2014 Finalist Award for Best Religious Non-Fiction Book- from the Next Generation Indie Book Awards*** A revolutionary thesis on the role of history over that of science in best discussing the subject of origins.
