Atheistic Platonism : A Manifesto Paperback / softback
by Eric Charles Steinhart
Part of the Palgrave Frontiers in Philosophy of Religion series
Paperback / softback
Description
Atheistic Platonism is an alternative to both theism and nihilistic atheism.
It shows how any jobs allegedly done by God are better done by impersonal Platonic objects.
Without Platonic objects, atheism degenerates into an illogical nihilism. Atheistic Platonism instead provides reality with foundations that are eternal, necessary, rational, beautiful, and utterly mindless.
It argues for a plenitude of mathematical objects, and an infinite plurality of possible universes.
It provides mindless rational grounds for objective values, and for objective moral laws for the persons who evolve in universes.
It defines a meaningful way of life, which facilitates self-improvement.
Atheistic Platonists argue for computational theories of life after death.
Atheistic Platonism includes a rich system of spiritual symbols.
It values transformational practices and ecstatic experiences.
Where atheisms based on materialism fail, atheisms based on Platonism succeed.
