Description: "Is treating religion like a delicatessen menu a good thing? Can one legitimately be 60% Christian, 20% Buddhist, and 20% Jewish? Showing that these combinations are happening in varying degrees, Berthrong questions whether the combinations will have the power to stem the forces of impending ecological disaster, give people strength to weather trials, and whether communities and nations will find in them a foundation to make just decisions."--BOOK JACKET.
