Reason, will and belief

insights from Duns Scotus and C.S. Peirce

Gordon E. Whitney

pp. 137-150

Abstract

This paper seeks to describe Peirce's explanation of man's widespread belief in God apart from special written revelation. In letters to William James, Peirce calls this belief "true theism" (Perry 1936:2.435; CP 8.262).
