{"product_id":"9780334000037","title":"Atheist Priest?: Don Cupitt and Christianity","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis first extended study of Don Cupitt's writings discusses them from his earliest articles up to and including The Long-Legged Fly, published in 1987. Such a survey is badly needed, the author argues, because so many of the attacks on Don Cupitt are misplaced and fail to see his ongoing project as a whole. Scott Cowdell divides Cupitt into 'the early Cupitt', up to Taking Leave of God; 'the later Cupitt', the writer of the trilogy consisting of Taking Leave of God, The World to Come and Only Human and of The Sea of Faith; and the most recent non-realist Cupitt of The Long-Legged Fly. While sympathetic to Don Cupitt's works Scott Cowdell is by no means uncritical, and makes some important objections, particularly to Cupitt's rejection of alternative approaches: 'there are more thing in heaven and earth than are dreamed of in his philosophy'. But at least, he argues, Don Cupitt is honest in his assertions; there are other theologians in effect just as radical who conceal their radical character in an obscurantist haze. Don Cupitt has written a Foreword, and there is a full bibliography of his writings. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hymns Ancient \u0026 Modern Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47020336152816,"sku":"9780334000037","price":13.38,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780334000037_p0.jpg?v=1763685575","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780334000037","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
