The philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche has wielded immense influence over modern intellectual discourse, permeating fields from literature and psychology to religious studies and political theory. A fierce critic of institutionalized Christianity, Nietzsche's provocative ideas have posed numerous challenges to Christian thought. His notions such as the "death of God," the Übermensch (Overman), and the will to power have been the subjects of countless scholarly examinations, debates, and discussions. This book, "Unveiling the Mirage: A Christian Rebuttal to Nietzsche's Philosophy," aims to take a critical, yet respectful, look at Nietzsche's philosophy through the lens of Christian doctrine and theology. Why does Nietzsche matter in a Christian context? First, ignoring influential thinkers does not make their ideas go away. Nietzsche's impact on atheism, existentialism, and even certain strains of religious thought is extensive. Second, while Nietzsche was critical of Christianity, he also offered observations and critiques that can serve to refine, rather than simply dismiss, the Christian faith. By engaging deeply with Nietzsche, we have an opportunity to strengthen our understanding of our own beliefs.

In the contemplative shadow of Christopher Hitchens' intellectual legacy, there stands a multitude of voices, ready to engage with the spirited critiques he presented against religious belief. "Debunking Hitchens: A Christian Response" is not merely a book; it is a comprehensive, systematic Christian response to the sharp arguments laid down by one of the most formidable atheists of our time. The literary and philosophical armoury of Hitchens has compelled many to reconsider the foundations of faith. However, in the midst of these thought-provoking challenges, a path emerges for Christians not just to respond, but to delve deeper into the essence of their convictions.

In recent years, few voices have been as influential in the debate over the existence of God and the value of religion as Richard Dawkins. A distinguished biologist, Dawkins has used his scientific acumen to critique religious faith in works such as "The God Delusion." But it is necessary to ask: Does Dawkins present an unassailable argument? Is faith truly the "delusion" he claims it to be? In "Debunking Dawkins - A Christian Response," we seek to answer these questions and offer a thoughtful, reasoned counter-argument to the claims of Dawkins and the New Atheist movement. The intellectual tussle between science and faith is not new. However, Dawkins has contributed a layer of fervor to this longstanding debate, portraying religion as not just incorrect, but actively harmful. This book is not an attack on Dawkins as a person or a scientist, but a critical examination of his arguments against religious belief, particularly Christianity.

In an age saturated with doubt, an aggressive form of skepticism has taken root, targeting Christianity with a particular vengeance. This modern skepticism, unlike its classical antecedents, is less about a genuine search for truth and more about a predetermined dismissal of the Christian faith. It cloaks itself in the language of reason and objectivity, yet its arguments often betray a deep-seated bias, riddled with logical fallacies, misrepresentations of history, and a fundamental misunderstanding of the very nature of faith. This book is a counteroffensive, an intellectual and philosophical dismantling of anti-Christian skepticism. It will delve into the epistemological flaws, the internal inconsistencies, and the historical misrepresentations that plague this movement. We will expose the double standards by which skeptics ruthlessly critique Christianity while shielding their own favored worldviews from similar scrutiny. Why are they not sceptical about scepticism?

The Western Humanism originating in classical Greek philosophy--where the capacity of human reason became the dominant means for perceiving a worldview based in reality--reigned in Western philosophy until the onset of Postmodern Existentialism in the mid-twentieth century. Plato's Theory of Forms prepared the Western gentile mind to accept the rationality of a transcendent ultimate reality, and in so doing steered the gentile mind from its bent to pantheistic deities. The apostle Paul boldly proclaimed to the Athenians that their "unknown god" was indeed the transcendent God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Christianity prevailed in Western philosophy until the Enlightenment--which was the result of the unprecedented success of the scientific method--began to turn the Western mind to the existentialistic idea of the relativity of moral truth.

Nietzsche was famously an atheist, despite coming from a strongly Protestant family. This heritage influenced much of his thought, but was it in fact the very thing that led him to his atheism? This work provides a radical re-assessment of Protestantism by documenting and extrapolating Nietzsche’s view that Christianity dies from the head down. That is, through Protestantism’s inherent anarchy. In this book, Nietzsche is put into conversation with the initiatives of several powerful thinking writers; Luther, Boehme, Leibniz, and Lessing. Using Nietzsche as a critical guide to the evolution of Protestant thinking, each is shown to violate, warp, or ignore gospel injunctions, and otherwise pose hazards to the primacy of Christian ethics. Demonstrating that a responsible understanding of Protestantism as a historical movement needs to engage with its inherent flaws, this is a text that will engage scholars of philosophy, theology, and religious studies alike.

Christianity presumes morality is connected in important ways to God. God & Morality in Christian Traditions explores a wide range of philosophical issues related to that connection, including the metaphysical foundations of morality, the Fall and its implications, and how faith can affect one’s ability to discern obligations. Also included is a robust treatment of how vice and virtue shape one’s ethical life, as well as a timely discussion of how people―both Christians and non-Christians―can address deep moral disagreement in a pluralistic society. Drawing on Catholic, Protestant, and free church traditions, this volume highlights perspectives drawn from the natural law tradition, divine command theory, and virtue ethics, among other theoretical frameworks. Along the way, the authors provide salient insights on metaethics, moral epistemology, character development, and applied ethics. Scholars and students in Christian ethics, philosophy, and theology will benefit from this carefully edited and rigorously argued collection of essays.

Wide-ranging essays making up the first major study of Nietzsche and the classical tradition in a quarter of a century. This volume collects a wide-ranging set of essays examining Friedrich Nietzsche's engagement with antiquity in all its aspects. It investigates Nietzsche's reaction and response to the concept of "classicism," with particular reference to his work on Greek culture as a philologist in Basel and later as a philosopher of modernity, and to his reception of German classicism in all his texts. The book should be of interest to students of ancient history and classics, philosophy, comparative literature, and Germanistik. Taken together, these papers suggest that classicism is both a more significant, and a more contested, concept for Nietzsche than is often realized, and it demonstratesthe need for a return to a close attention to the intellectual-historical context in terms of which Nietzsche saw himself operating. An awareness of the rich variety of academic backgrounds, methodologies, and techniques of reading evinced in these chapters is perhaps the only way for the contemporary scholar to come to grips with what classicism meant for Nietzsche, and hence what Nietzsche means for us today. The book is divided into five sections -- The Classical Greeks; Pre-Socratics and Pythagoreans, Cynics and Stoics; Nietzsche and the Platonic Tradition; Contestations; and German Classicism -- and constitutes the first major study of Nietzsche and the classical tradition in a quarter of a century.
