How should we think about them? And how can we live together, or even talk together, when we cannot listen to people who think differently?<\/p>\n<p>In a lively and at times very funny book, Roger S. Gottlieb (<em>A Greener Faith, This Sacred Earth, A Spirituality of Resistance<\/em>) explores these questions in a collection of distinct but related philosophical short stories. Fictional characters with personalities, individual histories, and strong opinions wrestle with the meaning of life, the value of nature, animal rights, the roles of science and religion in environmentalism, and political choices facing environmental activists\u2014as well as their own anger, fear, despair, and close-mindedness.<\/p>\n<p><b>The May\u00a019 discussion will be led by Sally Van Vleck and Jim Crowfoot.<\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Now&#8217;s the time to get reading!
