The Meaning of Belief: Religion from an Atheist’s Point of View

Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press (2017)
  Copy   BIBTEX

Abstract

Contemporary debate about religion seems to be going nowhere. Atheists persist with their arguments, many plausible and some unanswerable, but these make no impact on religious believers. Defenders of religion find atheists equally unwilling to cede ground. The Meaning of Belief offers a way out of this stalemate.
