This title was first published in 2003. This book develops a moral
ontology for a theistic ethic that engages the work of contemporary
moral and political philosophers, and reaffirms the relevance of a
theistic tradition of God's relation to the world reflected in the
fundamental teachings of Judaism, Christianity and Islam. Drawing
on recent thought in the non-religious fields of psychology and
political and moral philosophy, which build around the concept of
human flourishing in community, Kirkpatrick argues that a theistic
ethic need not be the captive of parochial or sectarian theological
camps. He proposes a common or universal ethic that transcends the
fashionable ethnocentric 'incommensurate differences' in morality
alleged by many post-modern deconstructionists. In the wake of
ethnic religious strife post September 11th 2001, this book argues
for a common morality built on the inclusivity of love, community,
and justice that can transcend sectarian and parochial boundaries.
