Life after Faith: The Case for Secular Humanism by Philip KitcherISBN: 9780300203431
Publication Date: 2014-10-28
"Life after Faith" is a positive assessment of secularism and the possibilities it offers for a genuinely meaningful life without religion. Kitcher envisions the successors to religious life, when the senses of identity and community traditionally fostered by religion will instead draw on a broader range of cultural items--those provided by poets, filmmakers, musicians, artists, scientists, and others. With clarity and deep insight, Kitcher reveals the power of secular humanism to encourage fulfilling human lives built on ethical truth.

What It Means to Be Moral: Why Religion Is Not Necessary for Living an Ethical Life by Phil ZuckermanISBN: 9781640092747
Publication Date: 2019-09-10
In "What It Means to Be Moral," Phil Zuckerman argues that morality does not come from God, it comes from us: our brains, our evolutionary past, our ongoing cultural development, our social experiences, and our ability to reason, reflect, and be sensitive to the suffering of others. By deconstructing religious arguments for God-based morality and guiding readers through the premises and promises of secular morality, Zuckerman argues that the major challenges facing the world today--from global warming and growing inequality to religious support for unethical political policies to gun violence and terrorism--are best approached from a nonreligious ethical framework.
