The Reason for God : Belief in an Age of Skepticism by Timothy Keller (2008,... New York Presbyterian pastor Timothy Keller presents a thoughtful and compelling response to Richard Dawkins, Christopher Hitchens, Sam Harris and the rest of the atheists who have churned out a string of bestsellers defending their stubborn lack of faith. Keller shows that even atheism is a system of belief, which means that faith is inescapable. It is merely a matter of directing that faith in the direction which will be most positive for yourself and for humanity in general, which Keller argues is Christianity. He addresses very difficult questions--about suffering, about war, about doubt--and synthesizes the great writers, artists, philosophers, and people of faith who have provided deep insight into them. Keller's arguments about the inherent nature of faith are essentially irrefutable, and should sway the momentum of the debate back to the side of the believers. The End of Faith. The God Delusion. God Is Not Great. Letter to a Christian Nation. Bestseller lists are filled with doubters. But what happens when you actually doubt your doubts? Although a vocal minority continues to attack the Christian faith, for most Americans, faith is a large part of their lives: 86 percent of Americans refer to themselves as religious, and 75 percent of all Americans consider themselves Christians. So how should they respond to these passionate, learned, and persuasive books that promote science and secularism over religion and faith? For years, Tim Keller has compiled a list of the most frequently voiced "doubts" skeptics bring to his Manhattan church. And in The Reason for God, he single-handedly dismantles each of them. Written with atheists, agnostics, and skeptics in mind, Keller also provides an intelligent platform on which true believers can stand their ground when bombarded by the backlash. The Reason for God challenges such ideology at its core and points to the true path and purpose of Christianity. Why is there suffering in the world? How could a loving God send people to Hell? Why isn't Christianity more inclusive? Shouldn't the Christian God be a god of love? How can one religion be "right" and the rest "wrong"? Why have so many wars been fought in the name of God? These are just a few of the questions even ardent believers wrestle with today. In this book, Tim Keller uses literature, philosophy, real-life conversations and reasoning, and even pop culture to explain how faith in a Christian God is a soundly rational belief, held by thoughtful people of intellectual integrity with a deep compassion for those who truly want to know the truth.
