God is dead, proclaimed Nietzsche over one-hundred years ago. Yet not only do many still believe, religion continues to influence politics, culture, and morality to this day. Join theologian and former Archbishop of Canterbury, Rowan Williams, in a head-to-head with American sceptic and author of Truth, Michael Shermer, as they debate why faith has stuck around, the unexpected forms it has taken, and whether this is a force for societal solidarity or societal collapse. Beyond dogma and culture wars, join a debate on philosophical materialism, meta-ethics, and whether Nietzsche got things wrong.
"Compelling, wise, and lucid." — Sarah Bessey
"Michael Shermer has long been one of our most committed champions of scientific thinking." — Sam Harris
