"Daniel McCoy’s delightful and detailed exploration is a lovely and vitally needed example of moral apologetics at its best, one goal of which is to adjudicate between competing visions of reality by means of moral criteria. Visions both secular and religious. _Buddhism or Christianity_ courageously takes goodness as evidentially significant—and more specifically how well a tradition addresses this-worldly suffering. Informed and insightful, McCoy performs an indispensable service by underscoring several central and telling distinctions between Christianity and Buddhism on this score—like which provides the more robust account of objective moral values and duties and intrinsic human worth. In so doing he equips readers to arrive at their own principled and considered conclusions. McCoy's deeply informed and insightful work is worth serious study and close perusal, and it has my enthusiastic recommendation." - Dr. David Baggett
