Aprašymas

For those not content with mainstream religion but who still feel the need for spiritual understanding, this book offers an alternative. Departing from a tableau of struggling churches and fading numbers of 'believers, ' the author invites readers to join him in mining meaning from an increasingly meaningless world. Discarding creeds and dogma, the author's series of reflections opens new possibilities for a personal spirituality springing from the readers' own experience.

What former voices have called 'faith, ' the author refers to as a hunch, a built-in part of human equipment. Drawing upon such varied sources as Socrates and Waylon Jennings, martyrs and dog trainers, he reveals a route to truth that lies unnoticed before our very eyes. Instead of swinging between the poles of creedalism and mere non-belief, he locates a posture that has little to do with either and gives agnosticism its proper place in the modern.
