Ethics Without God
by Kai Nielsen
On This Page
Description
Nielsen argues that morality cannot be based on religion, and that there is no evidence to show that nonbelievers despair or lose their sense of identity and purpose. He shows that the implications of Christian absolutism are more likely to be monstrous than are those of a secular ethic that incorporates an independent principle of justice.Tags

Some good points here, but overall, I found this very dry and not an easy read.
