Skepticism and Religious Relativism

Another BookVoices review for talking books you can listen using your MP3 player or iPod. Free Talking Books are available at our Talking Book Store. -
“The longstanding ideas of humanism, agnosticism, and atheism have increasingly
challenged traditional religious doctrines or practices. Yet reason alone often fails to secure the
commitments and values of a healthy personal and communal life; spiritual and emotional life can
diminish to the dangerous level of nihilism and despair. Meanwhile, some theologians have
challenged the “”truth”" of any religion with the radical view that all beliefs are equally true. This
audio presentation explores how religious commitment can be reconciled with life in a rational,
skeptical world.

The Religion, Scriptures, and Spirituality series describes the beliefs, religious practices, and the
spiritual and moral commitments of the world’s great religious traditions. It also describes a religion’s
way of understanding scripture, identifies its outstanding thinkers, and discusses its attitude and
relationship to society.
