▼a "What is God? Does He exist? Can we know? The God Confusion is a down-to-earth guide for anyone interested in these questions. It does not evangelize for God and religion, or for atheism, secularism and science. Instead, it explores in a witty yet balanced way the idea of God and the standard arguments for his existence. Cox shows why all these arguments are logically incapable of moving beyond speculation to any kind of proof. Why the only credible philosophical position is agnosticism." -- Cover. |
