But you're expecting him to defend his points at length when he's done this. You need to read the book.
You're confused abt whether posttheism is good or worthless, whether its new or in existence. Please read the book.

I think your hostility will go if you do coz you've much more common ground than you think.

Helen, I have read much on the subject now and spoken to James, who is not the only author. It offers nothing new or unique.
-
And this contradicts what James said about many atheists already being posttheists how? You're arguing against claims not made.
-
What? Helen, in never said that.
-
Well, if James says the approach already exists but advocates more of us take it, why do you keep saying its not new?
-
He's saying that's what post-theism is. He's simply taking his favorite tactics already in use and calling those a new name.
-
Pretty much, yes, because those are the positive tactics of a mindset which refuses to take religion on its own terms.
-
Is that bad? Reviewing different atheist approaches to religion & advocating the positive ones as the way forward?
