Description: Can God's existence be established by good, clear, objective evidence? It all depends on what is meant by "God." This book expands the frontiers of philosophy by exploring that nest of issues in greater detail than ever before and presents the strongest case yet for atheism. Among the many philosophers whose work is discussed are J.L. Schellenberg, Daniel Howard-Snyder, William Alston, Alvin Plantinga, Michael Martin, Stephen Wykstra, Peter van Inwagen, Richard Swinburne, J.L. Mackie, and Bruce Russell. Written with rigorous attention to scholarship but accessible to students and general readers, Nonbelief & Evil is must reading for anyone who wants to be at the forefront of the philosophical debate between theism and atheism.
