Morality is one of the hottest topics of discussion in both academic and popular philosophy. But an impasse has been reached: secular ethics has failed in its attempt to provide a universally accepted basis for morality, and traditional religious morality just doesn t appeal to the masses anymore. And that s where this book comes in. The Moral Law provides a new basis and understanding of morality, one not associated with traditional religion or secularism but based on spirituality, drawing on perennial philosophy (the view in philosophy and spirituality that considers all the world s religions sharing a single metaphysical truth) to endorse a God-given moral code not limited to any particular religion. This book contains ground-breaking ideas and arguments, and offers a unique model of morality that can revolutionise our understanding of what it means to be good.
