This book seeks to explore the complex modes of interface between
religion, atheism, and the Goddess in multicultural contexts. While
atheism has often been seen as an interrogation of and a battle
against God, the gender dimension of this discourse has not been
sufficiently negotiated. Is the fight against God also a fight
against the Goddess? Or is there something common between the
ideological thrust of the battle against God the “Father” in
atheism and the interrogation of the Divine Father in thealogy? Can
the Goddess be seen as an entity radically different from the
imperious transcendental that the atheists find embodied in God the
Father? Or, can the Goddess be seen as “transcendental” as well
as immanent, and hence subjected to the same atheist denial of
transcendence to which God is subjected in non-theistic or
anti-theistic arguments? With this volume, Anway Mukhopadhyay
embarks on a difficult project of epistemologically, ideologically
and even politically renegotiating and reorienting some of the
fundamental issues involved in the discussions of and debates over
atheism.
