BECOMING A MODEST SOCIETY: On Distinguishing Ourselves
|
Join author Greg Loewen for the launch of Becoming A Modest Society on Thursday March 11 at 7:00 PM at McNally Robinson Saskatoon. |
This engrossing new book offers fresh understanding of the progress of humanity.
Author G.V. Loewen provides an enthralling discussion of the conceits of humanity in the modern day in Becoming a Modest Society.
In this sequel to his fascinating analysis of religion and science, What is God? Loewen proceeds to ask the major question implicit in this previous work; what then is human?
His responses take us on a journey from what has been human and what we are today, and allow us to confront some of our favorite conceptual confusions, including such as those between morals and ethics, modesty and humility, and criticism and critique amongst many others. Along the way he defends Wal-Mart, analyses the Dixie Chicks, suggests we temporarily stop having children while also questioning our motives regarding their nascent sexuality, and tells us how we can share the consciousness of another in bizarre circumstances.
Engaging the reader with both philosophical and personal narrative, Becoming a Modest Society is a must read for all those concerned with not only the current state of social relations, but of humanity itself.
