Naturalism Defeated?: Essays on Plantinga’s Evolutionary Argument Against Naturalism

Over at Evangelical Outpost, Joe Carter has written a post on Science vs. Naturalism: Why Naturalism is a Self-Refuting Philosophy. (HT: Wayne Shih)

I strongly recommend the book Naturalism Defeated?: Essays on Plantinga’s Evolutionary Argument Against Naturalism which addresses this topic more completely.

Contributors to this book include William Ramsey, Jerry Fodor, Evan Fales, Michael Bergmann, Ernest Sosa, James Van Cleve, Timothy O’Connor, Richard Otte, W.J. Talbott, Trenton Merricks, William Alston, and Alvin Plantinga.

This book isn’t exactly a page-turner, but it is a very important work for those who are considering the intellectual foundations of evolutionary science.

Godless, Recommended by William Dembski

Ann Coulter, isn’t usually an author that you would think of when building your theological library. However, consider the following statement made by William Dembski at Uncommon Descent;

“Having been a sounding board for Ann Coulter, on chapters 8-10 of GODLESS), I’m happy to see the entire book now that it is out. Ann is taking Phillip Johnson’s message as developed in DARWIN ON TRIAL and REASON IN THE BALANCE and bringing it home to the masses. Critics will dismiss it for its hyperbole, lack of nuance, and in-your-face attitude. But she has the gist just right, which is that materialism (she calls it liberalism) dominates our culture despite being held by only a minority of the populace and has become an agenda among our elites (academy, scientists, media) for total worldview reprogramming. Close to half the book is devoted to science and evolution. I cannot help but feel that GODLESS will propel our issues in the public consciousness like nothing to date. Phillip Johnson’s DARWIN ON TRIAL took ten years to sell 300,000 copies. I expect Ann will sell more than that in ten weeks.”
