Is Goodness without God Good Enough? : A Debate on Faith, Secularism, and Ethics Hardback

Edited by Robert K. Garcia, Nathan L. King

Hardback

Description

Morality and religion: intimately wed, violently opposed, or something else?

Discussion of this issue appears in pop culture, the academy, and the media_often generating radically opposed views.

At one end of the spectrum are those who think that unless God exists, ethics is unfounded and the moral life is unmotivated.

At the other end are those who think that religious belief is unnecessary for_and even a threat to_ethical knowledge and the moral life. This volume provides an accessible, charitable discussion that represents a range of views along this spectrum.

The book begins with a lively debate between Paul Kurtz and William Lane Craig on the question, Is goodness without God good enough?

Kurtz defends the affirmative position and Craig the negative.

Following the debate are new essays by prominent scholars.

These essays comment on the debate and advance the broader discussion of religion and morality.

The book closes with final responses from Kurtz and Craig.
