Description: In Gregory Wolfe's collection, The New Religious Humanists, we find the work of a new group of religious intellectuals who have a compelling vision for cultural renewal. In his Introduction Wolfe argues that the only viable alternative to the tired debates between Left and Right comes from one of the oldest - and most relevant - strains of the Judeo-Christian tradition. The writers and topics gathered here offer a rich feast for the mind and heart, including moving personal narratives, meditations on the role of faith in public life, and reflections on environmentalism, abortion, biotechnology, and the arts.
Notes: Includes bibliographical references (p. 299-303).
