Covers traditional topics - like the cosmological, teleological, and ontological arguments for the existence of God, and the problem of Evil - while making room for emerging trends in the philosophy of religion, which look beyond the beliefs of given religions to an examination of their practices. Analytic philosophy of religion is often practiced in an almost exclusively Christian environment. This can sometimes make the topic less hospitable to non-Christians. The examples and arguments that populate this book draw from a wide variety of cultures and traditions. Atheists, agnostics, and devotees of a wide array of religious traditions (from Christianity to Buddhism) will therefore feel welcome and engaged.
