What, if anything, can legitimately be said about God? The greatest thinkers have long sought to clarify the idea of a “supreme being” by examining the many perplexing conundrums that the idea raises—and trying to determine whether, in the end, it is reasonable to believe in such a being. The debate rages to this very day, with a recent spate of best-selling books on both sides of the divide.
Revealing the thoughts of the most important philosophers, both historical and contemporary, The God Question concisely presents the most interesting arguments from the faithful, the atheistic, and the even downright heretical. Its light-hearted prose will give you captivating insights into a wide array of God-related puzzles, whether or not you are religiously inclined.
