@crddouglas: A deservedly brutal review. It's not fun to look at the nihilism of today's Christian Right. Some academics and writers would rather talk about the religion we wish we had rather than the religions we have. https://t.co/iWLWJp9dm5

It seems like a very difficult time to argue that religion is good for democracy, yet that's precisely what Robert Wuthnow's latest book attempts to argue.... not too successfully, according to Peter Laarman. @PrincetonUPress https://t.co/r8L9D9L31X

@oberyhendricks Appreciate the kind words about RD... and we have tremendous respect for your work. But for the record we do think it's unfair to say that @AKeyPhD isn't familiar with your work. In any case, all the best to you as well.
