Abstract
In the article Tomo Vereš –Promoter and Advocate of Philosophical–Theological Dialogue: The Role and Significance of Faith in Dialogue the author delves into Vereš’s concept of man and his longing for existence, freedom, immortality and eternity in respect to transience, contingency and mortality. He exposes Vereš’s philosophical–
theological efforts in the course of his inquiries into man’s ability to acquire knowledge by means of reason about the origin, meaning and purpose of his existence in relation to the existence of the Prime Mover, or rather, the Creator who always was and who reveals himself gradually throught His works and in man’s consciousness.
The article studies the foundedness and significance of Vereš’s reflections, judiciousness and justifiability of his endorsement and advocacy of philosophical–theological dialogue among the philosophical–theological sciences, particularly between faith
and reason.
