Carrier The nature of the universe the meaning of life and much arguing from scientific evidence that there is only a physical natural world without gods or spirits but that we can still live a life of love meaning and joy Excellent discussion of metaphysical naturalism It is unfortunately an overly broad discussion with regards to specific applications I followed all of his logic and arguments until the very end when he gets into his personal political views Somehow there is a disconnect between the evidence he demands of religion and the evidence he demands for government policies He understands the misery brought on by all collective socialistic regimes except the modern liberal ones He also describes all the programs he endorses as being good without offering any evidence to that respect I will however have to read the supporting material he lists at each chapter The first part of the book I would have given 4 stars the last section 1

Carrier If God does not exist then what does Is there good and evil and should we care How do we know what's true anyway And can we make any sense of this universe or our own lives Sense and Goodness answers all these uesti Sense and Goodness Without God by Richard Carrier Sense and Goodness Without God A Defense of Metaphysical Naturalism is a great reference book about the metaphysical naturalist worldview It s a book the answers the big philosophical uestions about our world in a comprehensive and thorough fashion Mr Carrier tackles a very ambitious project he covers a lot of interesting issues with a luxury of details such as religion knowledge science art politics etcThe book has 444 pages and is composed of eight major chapters I Introduction II How We Know III What There Is IV What There Isn t V Natural Morality VI Natural Beauty VII Natural Politics and VIII Conclusion Positives 1 A well written accessible book for the masses of the most important philosophical uestions of the world Some concepts are still dense but the author does an excellent job of clearly conveying his worldview 2 Very knowledgeable author who explains with a luxury of details his naturalist worldview Each major chapter is broken out into sub chapters At the end of each subchapter there is a bibliography of suggested reading material Excellent 3 Very thorough book Each topic is covered with great care and obviously well thought out 4 The book is reference uality I will use this book for future reference Some very interesting concepts ideas and even methodology are explained in a clear logical manner 5 There is so much knowledge in this book I also enjoy how the author refutes critics of his worldview JP Moreland is referenced uite a bit 6 One of the biggest strengths of this book is the sound logic backed by science 7 Thought provoking I enjoy books that make me think this book is brain candy 8 The concept of abstraction explained in plain English Many concepts as well Thank you 9 The concept or myth that is the soul is one of my favorite topics and Mr Carrier shares much needed insight 10 Coherent thinking throughout 11 Well worth the investment of time needed to read from cover to cover 12 There is a lot to take from this book Many concepts and ideas are much clearer in my mind as a result of this book Mr Carrier s ability to convey cogent thoughts in a precise manner had a lot to do with it 13 Very positive book Negatives 1 An investment of time is reuired to get through this book but ultimately is worth it 2 So much in this book some chapters are tedious and the author belabors some points 3 Ambition perhaps made this book bigger than it should have been 4 With so many diverse topics covered it s expected that some topics will be of much interest than others 5 Some charts or illustrations would have helped explain some concepts As an example a chart of worldviews 6 Perhaps a little humor could have been used to break it up a little bit In summary I compare Sense and Goodness with the building of a solid house At first it takes a while to build up a sound foundation there is a lot of prep work and such but once it is down the walls come up in a hurry That s exactly how this book flows Richard Carrier spends a lot of time going through the methodology of knowledge and establishes a good foundation of what is to come As a reader I was rewarded with an ambitious book that delivers the goods The philosophy of Secular Humanism is one I endorse and live by and so it is always good to read a book that articulates my way of thinking cogently The book deserves five stars for its depth and consistency
