Where Angels Fear To Tread

This work commenced in about 2002 as a personal chronicle of the author's experiences in religion and family mental illness. It soon expanded to include the origins of religion and the cases for and against Christianity. These led on to religious education, the 'greening' of Christianity and the need for updating the commandments. Then followed sections on science and reason together with creationism and intelligent design. Finally consideration was given to faith, ethnicity and race, genre short on objectivity.Appendices include major works by the author and a final chapter to update the role of religion in modern Australia. Throughout the book the author seeks to find a potentially positive role for faith in an increasingly uncertain world in which values have become blurred and guidelines for our youth are lacking.
