This stimulating and objective book is aimed at those who wish to think critically about the real existence of God.

In it the author argues that the Judaic, Christian and Islamic religions have assumed that the existence of God provides a reasonable explanation for personal religious experiences, and to such cosmic questions as: Where does the universe come from? And although the typical theistic answers may turn out to be false, they nevertheless offer a significant rational alternative to atheism.

Logical, coherent, informed, Professor Gaskin's study maps the main areas in the philosophy of religion and clarifies the issues surrounding the fundamental question of God's existence.
