Beyond Idols : The Shape of a Secular Society Hardback

Description

This book attempts to articulate the nature of a secular society, describe its benefits, and suggests the conditions under which such a society could emerge.

To become secular, argues Fenn, is to open oneself and one's society to a wide range of possibilities, some interesting and exciting, some burdensome and dreadful.

While some sociologists have argued that a "Civil Religion" is necessary to hold together our newly "religionless" society, Fenn urges that there is nothing to fear--and everything to gain--from living in a society that is not bound together by sacred memories and beliefs, or by sacred institutions and practices.
