Philosophy of Religion: Selected Readings

by William L. Rowe, William J. Wainwright

This third edition of Philosophy of Religion offers a wide variety of readings designed to introduce students to important issues in the philosophy of religion. The authors have coupled new readings--including essays by Robert M. Adams, Peter Van Inwagen, and William P. Alston--with readings from classical philosophers, offering students an even more comprehensive and well-focused text. Many of the essays are particularly accessible to beginning philosophy students. New essays cover religious pluralism, teleological and moral arguments for God's existence, and the problem of evil. Philosophy of Religion, 3/e is an excellent choice for use as a main text or as a supplement for introductory courses in philosophy and religion.

Despite the fact that it's a textbook, I was very excited to get this for my philosophy of religion class. The book showcases the best arguments for and against the existence of God, and does it in a fair way, using the best formulations of the arguments.

The philosophy of religion was my favorite intellectual pursuit until I discovered some answers and now I simply enjoy great fiction and history.
