Klappentext zu „Palgrave Frontiers in Philosophy of Religion / The Axiological Status of Theism and Other Worldviews “
This book explores the value impact that theist and other worldviews have on our world and its inhabitants. Providing an extended defense of anti-theism - the view that God's existence would (or does) actually make the world worse in certain respects - Lougheed explores God's impact on a broad range of concepts including privacy, understanding, dignity, and sacrifice. The second half of the book is dedicated to the expansion of the current debate beyond monotheism and naturalism, providing an analysis of the axiological status of other worldviews such as pantheism, ultimism, and Buddhism. A lucid exploration of contemporary and relevant questions about the value impact of God's existence, this book is an invaluable resource for scholars interested in axiological questions in the philosophy of religion.

Pressezitat
"Kirk Lougheed's most recent venture into the steadily growing wealth of literature about the axiology debate. ... The book is ... written in clear and engaging prose. Lougheed has extensive knowledge and a deep understanding of the axiological debate and its complexities, yet he conveys even the most difficult components in a matter of fact and easily digestible way. ... Since the debate is a rich and under-explored area of philosophy, I hope and expect that he is right." (Asha Lancaster-Thomas, International Journal for Philosophy of Religion, Vol. 91, 2022)
