Contemporary conversations about religion and culture are framed by
two reductive definitions of secularity. In one, multiple faiths
and nonfaiths coexist free from a dominant belief in God. In the
other, we deny the sacred altogether and exclude religion from
rational thought and behavior. But is there a third way for those
who wish to rediscover the sacred in a skeptical society? What kind
of faith, if any, can be proclaimed after the ravages of the
Holocaust and the many religion-based terrors since? Richard
Kearney explores these questions with a host of philosophers known
for their inclusive, forward-thinking work on the intersection of
secularism, politics, and religion. An interreligious dialogue that
refuses to paper over religious difference, these conversations
locate the sacred within secular society and affirm a positive role
for religion in human reflection and action. Drawing on his own
philosophical formulations, literary analysis, and personal
interreligious experiences, Kearney develops through these
engagements a basic gesture of hospitality for approaching the
question of God. His work facilitates a fresh encounter with our
best-known voices in continental philosophy and their views on
issues of importance to all spiritually minded individuals and
skeptics: how to reconcile God's goodness with human evil, how to
believe in both God and natural science, how to talk about God
without indulging in fundamentalist rhetoric, and how to balance
God's sovereignty with God's love.
