About this book

"Fundamental Ends of Life" is a profound exploration of the ultimate purposes that guide human existence. Written by the influential philosopher and mystic Rufus M. Jones, this work delves into the essential questions that define the human experience: Why do we live? What are we striving for? And what are the values that truly matter? Jones argues that life is not merely a series of biological functions but a spiritual journey driven by ends that transcend the material world.

In this insightful volume, Jones examines the nature of the soul, the reality of spiritual values, and the quest for a meaningful life. He draws upon both philosophical tradition and mystical experience to offer a vision of life that is grounded in a deep sense of divine presence and moral purpose. The book challenges readers to look beyond the immediate demands of the physical world and to seek fulfillment in the eternal truths that give life its true significance.

Ideal for students of philosophy, theology, and the history of religious thought, "Fundamental Ends of Life" remains a compelling testament to the search for depth and direction in an increasingly complex world. Jones's clear prose and spiritual depth make this work a timeless contribution to the literature of the inner life.

Theism and Atheism: Opposing Arguments in Philosophy
<p><em>Theism and Atheism: Opposing Arguments in Philosophy</em> is a peer-reviewed, academic volume that has two separate editors in chief, with their respective editorial boards. The atheism side is led by Graham Oppy (Australian philosopher, Monash University). The theism side is led by Joseph Koterski, S.J. (American philosopher, Fordham University) and includes Christian, Jewish, and Muslim philosophers. <p/><br>The two editorial boards worked together to identify twenty key topics in philosophical debates regarding arguments for and against the existence of God (e.g., Religious Experience, Miracles, Our Universe, Human Beings, Science, Religious Diversity, etc.). The single volume is composed of forty total chapters. The format is such that an author taking the side of theism composes a chapter on a topic, followed by an atheism author covering the same topic (e.g., Miracles: Theism followed by Miracles: Atheism).<br> <p/>The title presents complex philosophical counter perspectives in a lucid manner. It grapples with issues that have occupied philosophers for more than two millennia. These include the sufficiency/insufficiency of an empirical explanation for the existence of the universe; the capacity/incapacity of the empirical sciences to draw conclusions about a possible infinite being; the validity/invalidity of philosophical arguments regarding the existence of an infinite being; various notions of infinity; the problem of evil, and so on. </p>
