- Summary:
- Contemporary conversations about religion and culture are framed by two reductive definitions of secularity. In one, multiple faiths and non-faiths co-exist free from a dominant belief in God. In the other, we deny the sacred altogether and exclude religion from rational thought and behaviour. But is there a third way for those who wish to rediscover the sacred in a skeptical society? Richard Kearney explores these questions with philosophers known for their inclusive, forward-thinking work on secularism, politics, and religion.
