The Myth of Religious Neutrality

In clear, accessible language, Clouser discusses the nature and types of religion and religious belief, its relation to theories, and the various alternatives (e.g., irrationalism, rationalism, biblicism, and scholasticism). He then outlines various mathematical, physical, and psychological theories, critiques reductionism, and outlines biblical theories of reality, society, and state. The book is controversial not only for its central thesis and its analogy between the role of religious belief in human life and that of tectonic plates in the earth's geography, but also for its definition of religion as necessarily involving belief in God. Recommended for academic and seminary libraries.
