The Future of Religion: Traditions in Transition
In this compilation of essays, scholars and practitioners of nine major faith traditions speak out about the future of their communities, beliefs, and practices. And in recognition of the growing body of nontheists around the world—atheists, humanists, and secularists—we have added a tenth collection of articles on the Future of Atheism and Humanism.
Scholars and writers at the forefront of their communities address a wide variety of topics in relation to their traditions: the effects of media and technology, trends evident in upcoming generations of believers, political marginalization and struggles with fundamentalism, diasporic changes, interreligious fusion, and the gradual dilution of core beliefs.
The anthology concludes with a section containing the remarks of nine prominent scholars—sociologists of religion, historians, theologians, philosophers, journalists—who weigh in on religion in general, tackling such topics as race, interfaith relations, blogging, theological controversies, gender issues, proselytizing, music, emerging movements, politics, and film.
In addressing these questions, we have included the thoughts of many of the most prominent and diverse scholars and commentators on religion today, including Reza Aslan, Philip Clayton, Quentin Cook, Michele Dillon, Gavin Flood, Martin Marty, Alister McGrath, Scot McKnight, Brian McLaren, Hemant Mehta, Eboo Patel, Sarah Pike, Charles Prebish, Jonathan Sarna, Phyllis Tickle, Asma Uddin, Reb Zalman, and many others.
