Review # 1 was written on 2014-06-09 00:00:00 William Geary I couldn't finish it. At least 90% of this is just mental gymnastics and linguistic confusion, a sad attempt at making philosophy superior to the actual understanding of physics. If you're a philosopher, please don't discuss physics if you can't go beyond mere words. |
Review # 2 was written on 2011-07-27 00:00:00 Hoa Tran Oppy is an atheist so I obviously disagree with him on pretty much everything. However this is a very good book to read if you want an overview of atheist arguments and critiques of Theistic ones. Oppy is fair not to straw man the other side. Unlike Dawkins, Hitchens, Dennett and Harris he actually takes the time to understand and interact with the other side. I wish more atheists would read Oppy rather than the dreck that is found on the internet skeptic sites. However my main critique of Oppy is that in answering Theist arguments he seems to just throw up every possible objection in what appears to be an attempt to provide talking points for atheism. No surprise, but I didn't really find any of his objections to be powerful or even troublesome. |
