Three Titles from Brazos Press!
| A Shared Morality: A Narrative Defense of Natural Law Ethics
By Craig A. Boyd / Brazos Press $2.99 – Save 90%!!! The contemporary landscape of ethical and moral issues is one of confusion and cacophony. Theories of ethics are often presented as unresolvable dilemmas in our postmodern world. On the one hand, ethical relativism is deemed both descriptive and prescriptive; on the other hand, moral absolutism is foundational. In reality, other options exist. In this groundbreaking book, Craig Boyd traces the history of natural law morality starting with the Greeks, taking it to the Bible, and onward through church history. Boyd explains the theory while critiquing it with other theories on morality such as divine command theory, analytic ethics, sociobiology, and postmodernism. Boyd concludes that natural law morality provides the basis of human morality by recognizing universally known features of human nature.

| Science’s Blind Spot: The Unseen Religion of Scientific Naturalism
By Cornelius G. Hunter / Brazos Press $2.99 – Save 80%!!! Paradigm shifts happen rarely within specific sciencies, and when they do, they often shake that field to its core. Cornelius Hunter attempts to do just that, showing how modern science is influenced by theological and metaphysical thinking, rather than empirical data. Naturalism then, is shown not as a result of scientific inquiry, but rather is merely an untried presupposition. In its stead, Hunter proposes a new idea–moderate empiricism–which could potentially satisfy the demands of both intelligent design and mainstream modern science. 170 indexed pages, softcover. |
