 In addition to the possibility of the demonstration of the existence of God and of the coherence of the divine attributes, Maritain allows that there are a number of other ways in which one might come to know religious beliefs to be true. Besides knowing God ‘naturally’, there is a “non-conscious knowledge of God” in the first act of human freedom (see Range of Reason, 1948 [1952: 69–71]), “connatural knowledge”, “abstract intuition” (by which one knows “primary principles” such as the laws of identity and of non-contradiction and the principle of causality), the “ways of the practical intellect” (i.e., through moral or aesthetic experience—though these do not provide a strict demonstration; see Approches de Dieu, ch. IV) and, of course, divine revelation.
