Description
Summary:Believing in God -- Looking for people -- Looking at the brain -- The first-person plural -- Facing each other -- Facing the earth -- The sacred space of music -- Seeking God. "In The Soul of the World, renowned philosopher Roger Scruton defends the experience of the sacred against today's fashionable forms of atheism. He argues that our personal relationships, moral intuitions, and aesthetic judgments hint at a transcendent dimension that cannot be understood through the lens of science alone." -- book jacket
