Three main questions are addressed: Can one reasonably maintain one's moral and religious beliefs in the face of interpersonal disagreement with intellectual peers? Does disagreement about morality between a religious belief source, such as a sacred text, and a non-religious belief source, such as a society's moral intuitions, make it irrational to continue trusting one or both of those belief sources? Should evolutionary accounts of the origins of our moral beliefs and our religious beliefs undermine our confidence in their veracity? This volume places challenges to moral belief side-by-side with challenges to religious belief, sets evolution-based challenges alongside disagreement-based challenges, and includes philosophical perspectives together with theological and social science perspectives, with the aim of cultivating insights and lines of inquiry that are easily missed within a single discipline or when these topics are treated in isolation. The result is a collection of essays--representing both skeptical and non-skeptical positions about morality and religion--that move these discussions forward in new and illuminating directions."--Page 4 of cover. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 0 $a Moral disagreement among philosophers / Ralph Wedgwood -- Moral disagreements with psychopaths / Walter Sinnott-Armstrong -- Normative disagreement as a challenge to moral philosophy and philosophical theology / Robert Audi -- Conciliationism and religious disagreement / John Pittard -- Conscience and the moral epistemological conflict / John Hare -- Theologies of hell and epistemological conflict / Charles Mathewes -- Not by "reason" alone, or even first : the priority of sanctity over dignity / Timothy P.
