Naturalistic ethics is the reigning paradigm among contemporary
ethicists; in God and Cosmos, Baggett and Walls argue that this
approach is seriously flawed. This book canvasses a broad array of
secular and naturalistic ethical theories in an effort to test
their adequacy in accounting for moral duties, intrinsic human
value, prospects for radical moral transformation, and the
rationality of morality. In each case, the authors argue, although
various secular accounts provide real insights and indeed share
common ground with theistic ethics, the resources of classical
theism and orthodox Christianity provide the better explanation of
the moral realities under consideration. Among such realities is
the fundamental insight behind the problem of evil, namely, that
the world is not as it should be. Baggett and Walls argue that God
and the world, taken together, exhibit superior explanatory scope
and power for morality classically construed, without the need to
water down the categories of morality, the import of human value,
the prescriptive strength of moral obligations, or the deliverances
of the logic, language, and phenomenology of moral experience. This
book thus provides a cogent moral argument for God's existence, one
that is abductive, teleological, and cumulative.
