Reason and Reverence: Religious Humanism for the 21st Century

Answering the critics who find humanism lacking the power to inspire, Murry brings a new vision of religious humanism--one that evokes compassion, spirituality and a language of reverence-while grounded in reason, community, social responsibility, science and ethics. Along with an accessible account of humanismís historical development, theological challenges and future directions, on these pages readers will discover a more open and inclusive humanism, one that speaks to the heart as well as the mind.
