Annotation: These original essays reconceive the place of religion for critical thought following the recent turn to religion in Continental philosophy, framing new issues for exploration, including questions of justice, anxiety, and evil; the sublime, and of the soul haunting genetics; how reason may be reshaped by new religious movements and by ritual and experience. Contributors: Pamela Sue Anderson, Gary Banham, Bettina Bergo, John Caputo, Clayton Crockett, Jonathan Ellsworth, Philip Goodchild, Matthew Halteman, Wayne Hudson, Grace Jantzen, Donna Jowett, Greg Sadler, Graham Ward, and Edith Wyschogrod.

Publisher Description:

"Philosophy of religion," in recent decades, has been the study of the rationality, coherence, and truth-claims of classical theism. Yet philosophical reflection on religion has included much more than this: it has been the creative construction of a religious philosophy; it has critically examined claims for religious authority and certainty; it has explored the principles underlying religious thought and life; it has exposed domination, deception, and illusion, it has explored the subjective, practical, and spiritual dimensions of religion.

This collection brings together essays by a variety of contemporary philosophers who are working in this broader tradition: Pamela Sue Anderson, Gary Banham, Bettina Bergo, John Caputo, Matthew Haltman, Wayne Hudson, Grace Jantzen, Donna Jowett, Greg Sadler, Graham Ward, and Edith Wyschogrod.
