Description
A subtle, passionate enquiry into the validity and purpose of religion.
"Anyone, whether a skeptic or a believer, will find stimulus in this book. It considers religion from a range of perspectives in a way that is always questioning and readable."--The Rt Revd Lord (Richard) Harries of Pentregarth, former Bishop of Oxford and honorary professor of theology, King's College London "Moore muses that this book will irritate ardent secularists and passionate believers alike. But for the many people in the middle, this volume will be deeply satisfying. Shunning dogmatism of any variety, Moore offers insights about religion that are both subtle andintuitive. He brushes away jargon and lays out a compelling way forward for speaking about religion--both inside the academy and beyond--which returns religion to its better angels."--Aaron Rosen, professor of religion and visual culture, Wesley Theological Seminary, author of Brushes with Faith and Art & Religion in the 21st Century
Peter Moore is Honorary Lecturer in Religious Studies at the University of Kent at Canterbury. His most recent book is Where Are the Dead? Exploring the Idea of an Embodied Afterlife (2017).
