Speaker: Dave Tomlinson
I MET GOD, SHE'S AN ATHEIST!
Religion and Spirituality in the Modern World
Despite the discrediting of many religious tenets in a modern age, an appetite for a spiritual dimension to life surprisingly persists. And while few people are bothered about the salvation of their immortal souls, even less wish to live in a world without soul.
Can there be life for religion or spirituality beyond theistic assertions of divinity? Can we evolve communities of soulful companionship beyond religious and secular dogma? And can a reconfigured approach to faith contribute usefully toward a more inhabitable, more humane social and spiritual world?
These are the kind of questions Dave Tomlinson is going to explore.
