Religious and Philosophy

People have struggled for very many years to understand what religious ideas and experiences mean or do not mean. People believe many different things about God, with some saying they do not believe at all. How can we know God? If He is ineffable or indescribable, then how is it that people have sought to give accounts of Him within religious texts throughout the years? To some, God is even too holy to be named; and perhaps He is beyond human language and its limits? Others suggest that God could be known from His effects, hence talk of His being all-powerful, just, all knowing, as well as the converse of these. I believe that philosophy can help to answer these questions, and i will say that some of philosophical arguments, such as Cosmological argument and the Design argument may change someone's religious convictions.
