The social scientific study of religion is a crucial arena of human endeavor, as questions about the existence and nature of God interact with the study of religion as a human phenomenon.

This landmark collection of papers draws on a range of perspectives that both summarize the theism debate in psychology and help to move it forward in new directions.
