Cowboy Religion

Despite our largely secular society and the global media that seems to propel it, religion is everywhere. Religion is itself the ultimate sacred cow officially venerated by other institutions.

Yet there lurks just beneath the surface of modern society a widely held suspicion that public religiosity is a sham.

Even more mysterious is the widespread call to spirituality by public personalities. Accessing spirit is presented as a missing link for a society with a short collective memory and a very weak hold on its ethical roots. Religion is everywhere. It is deep within the fabric of our culture and our language, but there is hardly a single useful clue as to what you really do to connect with this allegedly potent force.

So how does the ordinary secular person process all this religion talk? How do we use the words that derive from pervasive religious traditions to fashion useful conversation and decision making in our modern age?

These are issues that plague introspective men and women. This book provides useful clues in plain language. Here you will find the secret to happier, healthier and more successful living. And you'll find freedom from both pious authorities and the fear that lurks around the corner in a seemingly uncertain world.
