What (if anything) can legitimately be said about God? For centuries the God question has engaged the best minds, from Aristotle and Aquinas through Nietzsche and the leading lights of our own generation. These great thinkers have sought to clarify the idea of a “supreme being” by examining the many perplexing conundrums that the idea raises -- and trying to determine whether, in the end, it is reasonable to believe in such a being. The debate rages to this very day, with a recent spate of best-selling books on both sides of the divide.
Revealing the thoughts of history’s biggest philosophers on the biggest question of all, The God Question will help you make up your own mind. Presenting pithy arguments from the faithful, atheistic, and even downright heretical, Pessin’s light-hearted prose will give you a captivating insight into a wide array of God-related puzzles, whether or not you are religiously inclined.
