Taking into consideration analytical, continental, historical, post-modern and contemporary thinkers, this book provides a defence of a realist construal of religious discourse. It argues that anti-realism tends towards absolutism and hubris. It also provides a perspective on approaches influenced by Wittgenstein, Kant, and apophatic theology.

A critical examination of the Wittgensteinian philosophers of religion who claim that the word "God" cannot be understood as referring to a metaphysical being who may or may not exist. The author traces the arguments offered back to Wittgenstein's own criticisms and philosophical methods.
