[Sylvan Finger · Rating 4 out of 5]

This was the textbook for the class Philosophy of Religion. This book will introduce the reader to a variety of approaches to proving the existence of God and ideas that challenge the existence of God. The thing that kept me from giving it 5 stars was the lack of structure in explaining each idea.

A good introduction that provides background and focuses on being understandable. I enjoyed his point-counterpoint approach on many of the issues, though some of them were simplified due to the obvious constraints of an introductory text.
