Elizabeth Anderson, a philosopher at the University of Michigan, provides a tough minded consideration of the moral argument for the existence of God and religion. In it, she ranges widely and makes a strong argument concerning the origin of morality. Her argument about what morals can be derived from sacred texts is especially challenging. Provide APA style in-text citations and references for the items you refer to in the text of your answer.
- What is the moral argument for the existence of God/religion that Anderson sets out to dispel?
- Why does she think that the moral argument fails?
- Where does she think human morality comes from and what does she think is the best way of approaching morality/ethics?
Required Texts
- Elizabeth Anderson, "If God is Dead, Is Everything Permitted?" Chapter 39 in The Portable Atheist (Available in Follett Discover).
