The main aims of this book are to establish that it is rational to
believe that God exists; to show how God relates to morality; and
to show how God is causally connected to his creation. Dore defends
a version of the ontological argument and refutes the atheistic
argument from suffering. He argues that only God can account for
the overridingness of morality. He also treats ethical
supernaturalism as a type of ethical attitude theory, showing how
it is related to secular theories which base valid judgments of
moral goodness and evil on pro and con attitudes. He illlustrates
precisely how, given scientific explanation, theistic explanation
of the empirical universe can get a foothold. His method is to
adopt and defend a version of theistic (Berkeley-like)
phenomenalism and, in that connection, a pragmatic-instrumentalist
interpretation of scientific theories.
