God and Cosmos provides a four-fold moral argument for God's existence that is cumulative, abductive, and teleological. The four relevant moral realities that theism and Christianity best explain are: intrinsic human value and moral duties; moral knowledge; radical moral transformation of human persons; and a rapprochement between morality and rationality.

Naturalistic ethics is the reigning paradigm among contemporary ethicists; in God and Cosmos, David Baggett and Jerry L. Walls argue that this approach is seriously flawed. This book canvasses a broad array of secular and naturalistic ethical theories in an effort to test their adequacy in accounting for moral duties, intrinsic human value, moral knowledge, prospects for radical moral transformation, and the rationality of morality. In each case, the authors argue, although various secular accounts provide real insights and indeed share common ground with theistic ethics, the resources of classical theism and orthodox Christianity provide the better explanation of the moral realities under consideration. Among such realities is the fundamental insight behind the problem of evil, namely, that the world is not as it should be. Baggett and Walls argue that God and the world, taken together, exhibit superior explanatory scope and power for morality classically construed, without the need to water down the categories of morality, the import of human value, the prescriptive strength of moral obligations, or the deliverances of the logic, language, and phenomenology of moral experience. This book thus provides a cogent moral argument for God's existence, one that is abductive, teleological, and cumulative.

Have you gone to religion for answers but ended up more confused? Have you tried to believe in God, but ended up disappointed because he didn't show up as they'd described? There are too many unanswered questions about God, and it makes religion look like a wild goose chase. Religion presents God as a magician, and when God fails to appear as presented and we demand answers, it expects us to accept that God works in mysterious ways, and besides, "How dare you question God?" "The Hidden Truth About God," say, "We are not questioning God, but what was presented to us."This book carefully analyzes and logically weighs theology and reality. It gives a step-by-step breakdown of God's plan for Creation and uses real-life experiences to provide rational answers to unanswered questions about God. And why life is full of pains and suffering when God could snap his fingers and everything becomes perfect, yet he doesn't.Thomas, a computer scientist and teacher of religion together with Grace, a professor of religion and philosophy, reveals life as a program and God as a programmer. They brilliantly decipher codes to find the bridge between the supernatural and the natural, deity and humanity, God and reality, presenting answers to some very interesting questions: What's the truth about heaven?How did sin get into heaven?Why doesn't God take away evil?What happens in the supernatural?Is religion the way to God?What about reincarnation?Why can't a perfect God have a perfect world?Is there God, or does the universe run itself?What's the big deal about Christianity?Why are there so many contradictions in the Bible?Do you value reason? Are you a skeptic, or a critical thinker? Are you a believer in the universe? Are you atheist, theist, or just searching for answers to the countless questions of the universe? This book will provide you with answers using reason and real-life experiences as it draws resources from Religious books, theology, philosophy, science, and reality.The Law of relativity states that everything is neutral when seen in isolation and only reflects in our reality when we ascribe meaning to it. Therefore, we can give meaning to God and life, or not, but Thomas and Grace's inclusion to this law is that the truth remains true irrespective of relativity. What then is the truth
