The evolution of God
Robert Wright, author and senior fellow at the New America Foundation, believes that there is a hidden pattern in the great monotheistic religions and a “hidden code” in their scriptures. In his new book. "The Evolution of God," Wright argues that the underlying message of the scriptures reveals the key to harmony and reconciliation among the Abrahamic faiths. He also shows how today these faiths can reconcile themselves with science and how the scientific worldview leaves room for something that can meaningfully be called the divine. Wright joins Larry Mantle to discuss how his research could alter our understanding God and religious faith.
