Analysis of the Influence of Natural Religion on the Temporal Happiness of Mankind

More about the book

This book presents a philosophical investigation into the relationship between religion and human happiness. The authors, George Grote and Philip Beauchamp, argue that natural religion (i.e. the belief in God based on observation of the natural world) has a positive influence on human happiness, and that this influence should be taken into account in ethical and political decision-making. This book is a thought-provoking contribution to the ongoing debate over the role of religion in public life.
