Discussion Actions
In case anyone is interested-
In Bill Moyers’ latest podcast (7/17/09) he interviews Robert Wright on Wright’s new book The Evolution of God.
Good stuff- a lot of clear thinking about how the God concept has evolved over time. One thing that definitely stood out was how hopeful he is about the future.
It’s a 30+ minute interview and starts at about 17 minutes into the podcast.
