About this product
Product Information
Egginton questions whether fundamentalists and atheists truly oppose each other, as they both believe that the methods we use to understand the world are all versions of an underlying master code. The most effective weapon against such thinking is religious moderation, a way of believing that questions the very possibility of a code of codes. The moderately religious are best suited to protect science and politics from fundamentalist attack.

Reviews
Egginton's book is a very useful resource for survey or elective undergraduate courses. Highly recommended., William Egginton has produced an up-to-date account of the political nature of religion to remind us all that Samuel Huntington's clash of religious civilizations may not only be contrasted by religious moderation but also actually avoided. Following on Richard Rorty's and Gianni Vattimo's postmetaphysical weak thought, Egginton dismantles theistic, atheist, scientific, and philosophical arguments that try to accuse such moderate faith of irrationalism, relativism, or nihilism. A genuine must-read for all those concerned with the violent religious groups emerging in our societies., The argument made by William Egginton on behalf of religious moderation is a clear, nuanced, and important one. It shows how the critique of religion offered by well-known atheist authors is guilty of the same fundamentalist logic of which they are so critical. Egginton writes with great ease and clarity, and his many examples drawn from legal cases, popular culture, and his own personal experience will resonate with readers.
