The Substitutes For God

""The Substitutes for God"" is a philosophical book written by Edgar Sheffield Brightman. The book explores the concept of God and the various substitutes that humans have created to fill the void left by the absence of a divine being. Brightman delves into different aspects of human life, including love, morality, and the search for meaning, to examine the ways in which people have attempted to replace God with other entities or ideas. He argues that these substitutes, whether they be science, reason, or humanism, ultimately fall short in providing the same sense of purpose and fulfillment that a belief in God can offer. The book is a thought-provoking exploration of the human condition and the search for meaning in a world without a divine presence.THIS 30 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: The Problem of God, by Edgar Sheffield Brightman.
