The philosophy of religion is an exciting area, with deep connections not only to theology, but also to other areas of philosophy such as metaphysics, epistemology, ethics, political philosophy, and the history of philosophy. As well as traditional debates – such as arguments for the existence of God, or the problem of evil – contemporary topics include the problem of religious disagreement, divine hiddenness, reformed epistemology, the cognitive science of religion, non-theistic conceptions of the divine, and the relationship between religion and morality.
