The use of God in any moral debate is so problematic as to be almost worthless. We can argue whether this or that alleged claim emanated from God, but surely it is better to leave God out of the argument altogether and find strong human reasons for supporting the systems we advocate.

Now published with a new afterword by the author, in Godless Morality, Richard Holloway offers a sensible and practical approach to keeping religion out of ethics. This is a refreshing, courageous and human-centred justification for contemporary morality.
