Does God exist? If so, what is he or she like? Do you have a soul? If so, can it survive your death? Do miracles happen? Should we take religious language literally? Is providence just a matter of luck? Why is there suffering and evil the world? What is religious experience and what can it tell us? How does religion relate to the scientific world view? Does the world have to make sense to us?
These are just some of the questions which are examined in this book. They are fundamental to any intelligent understanding of life, whether or not a person is a member of one of the world religions. They are also questions which every believer needs to explore.
