Religious or Spiritual? None of the above

 

The Christian landscape is marked by a debate between whether Christianity is better described as a religion or as a type of spirituality. These terms mean different things to different people, but the main argument revolves around the best way to relate to the Ultimate. Peter Rollins argues that these positions are sides of the same coin and must be rejected in favour of a fully materialistic Christianity.

Peter Rollins is a writer, freelance philosophy lecturer, public speaker and the cofounder of the experimental collective Ikon. His most recent book is Insurrection: To believe is human, to doubt divine, which will be published later this year.
