Naturalism and Religion : A Contemporary Philosophical Investigation

This book guides readers through an investigation of religion from a naturalistic perspective and explores the very meaning of the term religious naturalism. Oppy considers several widely disputed claims: that there cannot be naturalistic religion; that there is nothing in science that poses any problems for naturalism; that there is nothing in religion that poses any serious challenges to naturalism; and that there is a very strong case for thinking that naturalism defeats religion.
