      abstract = {Atheism Considered is a systematic presentation of  challenges to the existence of a higher power. Rather than  engage in polemic against a religious worldview, C.M.  Lorkowski charitably refutes the classical arguments for  the existence of god, pointing out flaws in their  underlying reasoning and highlighting difficulties inherent  to revealed sources. In place of a theistic worldview, he  argues for adopting a naturalistic one, highlighting  naturalism's capacity to explain world phenomena and  contribute to the sciences. Lorkowski demonstrates that  replacing theism with naturalism, contra popular  assumptions, sacrifices nothing in terms of ethics or  meaning. Instead, morality ultimately proves more important  than religion and does not rely on it. Appropriate for  classroom use, this book is meant to cultivate  understanding, tolerance, and fruitful dialogue between  believers and nonbelievers.},
