Atheism and Faitheism - Robert M. Price

Theologian and writer Robert M. Price is perhaps best known today for his scholarly arguments against the existence of a historical Jesus. Yet he has been at various times in his career an agnostic an exponent of Liberal Protestant theology a nontheist a secular humanist a religious humanist a Unitarian-Universalist wannabe an unaffiliated Universalist and a Fellow of the Jesus Seminar. Any way you cut it he is not your typical atheist. This collection of his best essays demonstrates his love for the various great religions which he views as endlessly fascinating expressions of the human spirit. Beneath the keen insights and sharp critiques he offers whether the subject is theology secularism or biblical studies the essays themselves are also deeply personal and revealing. Read together they document his self-extrication from the born-again Christianity in which he dwelt for some dozen years--and his subsequent rise to celebrated freethought advocate whose work has challenged an entire field.
