This is the twenty-ninth volume in This World, a series on religion
and public affairs. It focuses on theological and moral questions
of deep significance for our time. The lines of division separating
secular and religious outlooks, modernity and postmodernism, and
romantic and classical styles of thought are some of the topics
treated in this volume. Additional features are an exchange of
opinions and a position paper intended to generate further
discussion. This ongoing series of volumes seeks to provide a
wide-ranging forum for differing views on religious and ethical
considerations. Theologies and Moral Concern include the following
major contributions: "Distinctions of Power: How Church and State
Divide America" by Brian Mitchell; "Beyond the Impasses: Making
Moral Sense of Abortion" by Anthony Matteo; "Are Religions Ever
Traditional" by Jacob Neusner; "Philosophical Issues in Darwinian
Theory" by Kenneth T. Gallagher; "Monotheism and Skepticism" by
Aryeh Botwinick; "Defining Romantic Theology" by Gerhard Spiegler;
and "The YMCA and Suburban America" by Clifford Putney. In
addition, the volume features a dialogue between Michael A.
Weinstein and Paul Gottfried on what constitutes the proper role
for liberal arts education in contemporary American society as well
as a position paper titled "The Pitfalls of Political Correctness"
by Lawrence Nannery. Theologies and Moral Concern is part of an
annual survey of religion and public life which aims to provide
relevant information and ideas about significant issues of the day.
It is directly pertinent to understanding the connection between
religion and the state. This particular volume, coming at a time of
intense public scrutiny of fundamentalism, evangelicism, and new
religious movements generally, should have special appeal for
political scientists, American studies specialists, sociologists,
and those involved in the creation of public policy.
