Where did the sacred go? This podcast is focused on the philosophical study of religion and will center on books, both historical and contemporary. Each book will get a 15 minute Book Brief episode and then a Deep Dive episode. The Book Briefs are high-level overviews of the main arguments of the book and why the book is relevant to us today. The Deep Dive episodes will not have the time constraint and will be where I spend time discussing various arguments and themes from the book, as well as offering critiques if I have them.Twitter: https://twitter.com/therspodSubstack: https://thereligiousstudiespodcast.substack.com/Email: thereligiousstudiespodcast@gmail.com
