Naturalistic ethics is the reigning paradigm among contemporary ethicists; in God and Cosmos, David Baggett and Jerry L. Walls argue that this approach is seriously flawed.

In each case, the authors argue, although various secular accounts provide real insights and indeed share common ground with theistic ethics, the...
