Robert K. Garcia and Nathan L. King are Ph.D. candidates in the philosophy department at the University of Notre Dame.
Written in clear and accessible prose, this book is a must-read not
just for philosophers interested in ethics or the philosophy of
religion but for anyone interested in the important topic of God's
relationship to morality. The book includes fascinating original
arguments not to be found elsewhere; even those already familiar
with the views and writing of Craig and Kurtz will discover new
ideas from these two important thinkers.
*Erik J. Wielenberg, DePauw University*
A nice variety of well-reasoned moral arguments are here
articulates. Recommended for anyone interested in issues of God and
morality.
*Religious Studies Review, June 2010*
This is a brilliant, accessible debate and a collection of tightly
reasoned essays on God and morality that should provoke
stimulating, mature debate among students and scholars in
philosophy of religion.
*Charles Taliaferro, St. Olaf College*
I hope these brief sketches will whet the reader’s appetite...I am
very glad to have read them. They are clear, engaging, and
extremely provocative...Most of the real action consists in the
back-and-forth between Craig and his numerous critics. This book
will therefore be read with most profit by those who (like me)
follow Craig’s work and have wondered just how he would respond to
various obvious lines of criticism.
*International Journal for Philosophy of Religion*
