Customer comments on this selection.
major contribution to debate about religion in the public sq This is a first-rate collection by a highly distinguished list of contributors, all who have published on the philosophy of religion and/or political philosophy before. Several excellent essays focus on questions in normative theory and moral psychology that are not directly related to the question of whether citizens in a democracy should refrain from religious motives (and/or religious arguments) in making political decisions and advocating for laws or policy measures -- as Rawls and Audi have argued. But several of the papers, e.g. by Stout, Eberle, and Mouw, do take up this challenge again, building on past work by Wolterstorff, Quinn, and others in reformed epistemology arguing against restrictions on religious reasons. While I think that their view violates the requirements of deliberative democracy, I also think that these authors make good points against Rawls. For more info, see my full review online at Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews.
