David Walls: 12 books

"I have walked many paths in my life, been given direction along the way from friends and teachers.  Shown different colors to use in my painting the walls of my life, yet for some reason as I look around, the colors seem a bit off.  Not exactly what I had in mind when I picked them out."

This book canvasses a broad array of secular and naturalistic ethical theories in an effort to test their adequacy in accounting...

Do Sunni Muslims and Protestant Christians pray to the same Creator and Sustainer of the universe? In...

This book aims to reinvigorate discussions of moral arguments for God's existence. To open this debate, Baggett and Walls argue that God's love and moral goodness are perfect, without defect, necessary, and recognizable.

Moral Soundings takes a fresh new approach to introducing students and general readers to contemporary ethics.
