- catalog abstract ""Philosophical naturalism holds that the natural world is the whole of reality and that there are no supernatural or spiritual entities, realities, or values and that there is no need to appeal to such illusory matters to find significance in our lives. In elucidating and defending naturalism, Kai Nielsen argues that an uncompromising secular orientation is the best framework to utilize in trying to make sense of life and of society and in organizing our lives. No religious alternatives, he forcefully argues, fare as well in the face of careful scrutiny and moral nonevasiveness."--Jacket.".
