Tilting at Religion (Hardcover)

Former ambassador to Kenya and president of Lincoln Center Glenn W Ferguson has kept a journal for 21 years in which he has recorded his thoughts on a wide variety of subjects. One issue that has sustained his interest throughout the decades is the conflicting views of unbelievers and religious believers, and the paradoxical attitudes that result from the clash of increasingly secular, international trends with traditional belief systems. This book is a compilation of brief essays culled from this journal, all on the subject of religion. Since religion is a pervasive aspect of society, Ferguson argues, it must be subject to critical scrutiny just like any other generalising theory or philosophy that is offered for public consumption. "Tilting at Religion" is designed to encourage the open-minded reader to raise probing questions about religion in the interest of enlightenment.
