Religion in Public Life: A Dilemma for Democracy (Twentieth Century Fund Book)

Religion in Public Life: A Dilemma for Democracy (Twentieth Century Fund Book)





Ronald F. Thiemann, dean of that bastion of liberal theology, the Harvard Divinity School, seems an unlikely source for the radical proposal made in this book: to remove from American public life the traditional separation of church and state. For years a kind of de-Christianized civic moral piety provided Americans with an adequate and non-sectarian sense of purpose and virtue, but this consensus has long broken down in the culture wars of the past 30 years. In an effort to fill the resulting vacuum, Thiemann controversially proposes a revised liberalism that will allow religious views an equal voice in public affairs.
