Exploring Morality: Theistic vs. Naturalistic Perspectives

This chapter examines the complex interplay between moral duties, intrinsic values, and human dignity through the lenses of naturalism and theism. It critiques the naturalistic approach to morality, arguing that it falls short in accounting for intrinsic values, particularly through the lens of relationships such as friendship. The discussion emphasizes the significance of a theistic worldview in grounding moral obligations and understanding human flourishing.
