Description

First published in 2004, this Routledge philosophical text by Robin Le Poidevin presents a rigorous examination of whether theism genuinely solves the deepest mysteries of existence. Le Poidevin challenges the traditional philosophical defences of theism that claim it explains what atheistic approaches cannot, such as why the universe exists and how objective moral values arise. The core argument of this work asserts that theism fails to explain many things it claims to address, while atheism can provide compelling explanations that theism overlooks. This introduction to the philosophy of religion offers readers a systematic and reasoned exploration of fundamental questions about belief, existence, and the comparative strengths of competing worldviews in accounting for our universe and moral reality.

Key Features

Argues against theistic explanations by examining whether theism truly solves existence's deepest mysteries more effectively than atheism.

Analyses how theism claims to explain objective moral values and the universe's origin, then challenges these philosophical defences.

Provides an introduction to philosophy of religion suitable for readers new to debates between theistic and atheistic worldviews.

Originally published by Routledge in 2004, offering established academic authority on atheistic philosophy and religious critique.

Explores why atheism can explain phenomena that theism struggles to account for despite its traditional philosophical support.
