Description: What is the philosophy of religion? How can we distinguish it from theology on the one hand and the psychology/sociology of religious belief on the other? What does it mean to describe God as 'eternal'? And should religious people want there to be good arguments for the existence of God or is religious belief only authentic in the absence of these good arguments? In this Very Short Introduction Tim Bayne introduces the field of philosophy of religion and engages with some of the most burning questions that philosophers discuss. Considering how 'religion should be defined and whether we even need to be able to define it in order to engage in the philosophy of religion he goes on to discuss whether the existence of God matters. Exploring the problem of evil Bayne also debates the connection between faith and reason and the related question of what role reason should play in religious contexts. Shedding light on the relationship between science and religion Bayne finishes by considering the topics of reincarnation and the afterlife.
