Moral Values and the Idea of God: The Gifford Lectures (Classic Reprint)

Description: This thought-provoking book examines the relationship between our moral values and our understanding of the ultimate nature of reality. The author argues that our ethical ideas have a bearing on the view of the world that we form, and that they should not be excluded from philosophical inquiry. The book begins by discussing the different kinds of values that we recognize, such as happiness, beauty, and goodness. It then explores the relationship between these values and our moral judgments, arguing that our moral judgments are not simply subjective preferences, but are based on objective criteria. The author goes on to consider the implications of our moral values for our understanding of reality. He argues that our moral values point us toward a view of reality that is both meaningful and purposive. The book concludes by discussing the significance of the insights that the author has presented for our understanding of the world and our place in it.
