Over the past decade, there has been a growing interest among
analytic philosophers in the topic of life's meaning. What is
striking about this surge of work is that nearly all of it is by
naturalists theorizing from non-theistic starting points. This book
answers the need for a theistic philosophical perspective on the
meaning of life. Bringing together some of the leading thinkers in
analytic philosophy of religion and theology, God and Meaning
touches on important issues in metaphysics, epistemology, ethics,
philosophy of religion, and biblical theology that intersect with
life's meaning. In particular: What does the question "What is the
meaning of life?" mean? How can we know if life has meaning and
what that meaning is? Might God enhance life's meaningfulness in
some ways but detract from it in others? Is the most meaningful
life one of perfect happiness? What is the relationship between
eternity and life's meaning? How does the Old Testament book of
Ecclesiastes illumine the topic? Should we hope that a kind of
transcendent meaning exists? Presenting a state-of-the-art
assessment of current philosophical positions on these and many
other questions, God and Meaning is an invaluable resource for all
students and scholars of the philosophy of religion.
