“As a theologian myself, I am inclined toward the larger questions that Prothero avoids. I will grant that given the immense diversity of our pluralistic world, we need to be honest about the major differences between religious traditions, and I applaud Prothero’s ongoing project of combating religious illiteracy. Nevertheless, after finishing his book, I was left wanting a larger framework for reflecting on how all the religious differences hang together.” Pastor Carl Gregg joins our blogger roundtable on “God Is Not One.”

“I find it amusing that following the selection of Stephen Prothero’s God Is Not One, some Christian writers have scurried to assure people that he doesn’t really mean that. Of course God is One!” Pagan Portal Manager Star Foster offers a passionate response to our bloggers’ reviews of God Is Not One, by Stephen Prothero.

“I fundamentally agree with Prothero’s thesis that religions are manifold; but as a theologian, I take a slightly different path that embraces both the kataphatic and apophatic aspects of religious experience — the affirmation that God is revealed in all things and can be symbolized by many things, while being more than anything we can imagine.” Progressive Christian Bruce Epperly on the book God Is Not One.
