Description
Anatheism: Returning to God After God by Richard Kearney explores the idea that our current moment may be an opportunity for a new kind of religious project, one that seeks to encounter divine wonder in a more responsible and creative way. Kearney, a distinguished philosopher, examines the roots of this "ana-theos" condition, which lies at the heart of every great religion. He argues that accepting we can never be sure about God is essential to rediscovering a hidden holiness in life and reclaiming an everyday divinity. By analyzing contemporary philosophy, literary epiphanies, and the conflict between theism and atheism, Kearney shows how a return to God is possible for those who seek it, and how a more liberating faith can be born.
