Divine teaching and the way of the world: a defense of revealed religion

Samuel Fleischacker offers a defense of 'revealed religion' - religions that regard a certain text or teaching as wholly authoritative over one's life. By reconciling it with secular cognitive and moral practices that allow people towork together regardless of religious difference, he shows how these two worldviews can be brought together.
