Opis

The conventional view of religion is that the basic truths were settled long ago, that all we have to do is to accept them and behave accordingly. First published in 1975, Barnes maintains that this is a sterile condition of mind. It follows that if art and science can be creative and originative, so also must religion be, if it is real.
