A point of clarification: At the beginning of this debate, Craig refers to a book in which he and Antony have interacted on the topic for this debate. He says that the book is entitled "God and Ethics" but that was only the working title for the book. The book is coming out in July, 2008, under the title of "Is Goodness Without God Good Enough? A Debate on Faith, Secularism, and Ethics". It is edited by myself (Robert K. Garcia) and Nathan L. King, and published by Rowman & Littlefield. The book begins with the transcript of a debate between Craig and Paul Kurtz, and is followed by critical essays by Louise Antony, John Hare, Donald Hubin, Stephen Layman, Mark Murphy, Walter Sinnott-Armstrong, and Richard Swinburne.
