Religion and Power

Más información sobre el libro

David Martin challenges the dichotomy between religion and politics, asserting they both stem from a shared mythic foundation. He critiques Juergen Habermas's views on rationality and contrasts his perspective with Richard Dawkins and New Atheism, labeling their stance as unscientific. Martin emphasizes that the potential for violence is inherent in religion, nationalism, and political ideologies, all linked by their ties to power and the need for social cohesion.
