This book examines the post-secular idea of 'religion for
non-believers'. The new form of unbelief which is dubbed as
'tourist atheism' is not based on absolute rejection of religion as
a 'dangerous illusion' or 'mere prejudice'. Tourist atheists
instead consider religion as a cultural heritage and a way of
seeking perfection. What are the origins of these new forms of
atheism? What are the implications of the emergence of a type of
atheism which is more open toward religious teachings, rituals,
arts, and world views? Hashemi argues that public intellectuals
must consider that it is a sign of a post-secular age in which
believers and non-believers go beyond mere tolerance and engage in
a creative process of co-practice and co-working.
