Losing our religion?

Neil Morgan and Piers Maddox, who have very different understandings of the role of God in the Society, have some things to get off their chest

‘How nontheists view discernment is giving me a headache.’

I have just finished reading Rhiannon Grant’s Telling the Truth About God (see review, 8 March). This humane, kind, thoughtful book makes use of ‘ordinary theology’ and the bottom-up (rather than top-down) ideas of the later Ludwig Wittgenstein to think about truth in religion. It takes further some thinking in recent publications around theology, prior to the revision of Quaker faith & practice.
