Product Description
(Trade Cloth, 2008, Religious Fundamentalism)
A great debate is unfolding across America pitting reason and science against fundamentalist belief systems that explain everything as God’s will. With an engaging manner, clarity of expression, and a keen sense of humor -- making it a pleasure to read – Bondage of the Mind relentlessly dismantles the whole mind-set of religious fundamentalism. The book’s overarching message is not that religion should be abandoned. It is rather that religious fundamentalism is an insidious, corrosive force that must be combated if our hearts and minds are to remain free. Bondage of the Mind announces itself as a book about truth, but it is also a book about freedom.
