31:24Now PlayingFriends, on today's episode of “The Word on Fire Show,” Brandon Vogt and I discuss an interesting new book titled “Strange Rites: New Religions for a Godless World” by Tara Isabella Burton.
Burton argues that while younger generations are supposedly the most secular according to surveys, they’re actually notably religious—it’s just that they have adopted strange new religions. She claims today’s Americans are embracing a kaleidoscopic panoply of spiritual traditions, rituals, and subcultures, from astrology and witchcraft to SoulCycle and the alt-right. In search of the deep and the real, they are finding meaning, purpose, ritual, and communities in ever-newer, ever-stranger ways.
A listener asks, if religious faith is based on our response to the revealing God, how do we reconcile this with the plurality of religions?
