Reasoning about God is an introduction to philosophy of religion,
meeting college students where they are with their own doubts and
questions. Each chapter begins with a passage from a fictional
student, who raises intellectual problems against God, which is
followed by the author's informed and easy-to-understand analysis.
This debate structure allows student readers to clearly see the
clash of ideas, gets them involved in the issues, and encourages
their critical thinking (since students are pushed to find flaws in
the ideas). It emulates the structure the author followed
successfully in his Ethics: A Contemporary Introduction, which is
now in its third edition and has been translated five times into
other languages. This structure works well in philosophy of
religion, even better than in does in ethics. Key Features of
Reasoning about God: Written clearly and concisely, making
difficult issues easy to understand. Makes a strong case for belief
in God, based on various factors - including arguments about
fine-tuning, Kalam, and near-death experiences - as well as
approaches that are more instinctual or emotional. A major theme of
the book is "There are many paths to God." Includes material on
both traditional topics of philosophy of religion (like the problem
of evil) and other related topics of interest (like whether
religion is harmful, life after death, the variety of world
religions, and the meaning of life). Explores how science connects
to God's existence, arguing that recent science is friendlier
toward religion than older science. Written by a Christian author,
whose defense of belief in God works with other theistic traditions
as well (like Islam and Judaism).
