Do We Need Religion?

Meer over het boek

Focusing on human experiences of self-transcendence, the book presents a fresh perspective on religion, challenging outdated assumptions about modernization and secularization. It argues that faith serves as a means to articulate and interpret these profound experiences, rather than being merely useful or a sign of weakness. By contrasting this view with contemporary religious thinkers, the author connects the discussion to current debates surrounding human rights and universal dignity, offering a nuanced understanding of the role of faith in modern society.
