Why Religion Is Not Necessary for Living an Ethical Life
By Phil Zuckerman
Deconstructing religious arguments for God-based morality and guiding readers through the premises and promises of secular morality, Phil Zuckerman argues that morality does not come from God. Rather, it comes from us: our brains, our evolutionary past, our ongoing cultural development, our social experiences, and our ability to reason, reflect, and be sensitive to the suffering of others.
