How to tell Jerusalem from Athens: How a faith-methodology distinguishes theology from philosophy

Recent developments in both philosophy and theology have blurred the line between the two disciplines: philosophers of religion have sought to use philosophical methodology to answer explicitly theological questions, while at the same time the rise of analytic theology has led to philosophical tools increasingly being used for the thelological task. This paper sets out to demonstrate that the most useful way to distinquish theology from philosophy of religion is to adopt a faith-methodology and goes on to outline what this would look like in practice.
