Synopsis

QUANTUM RELIGION is the second book ofSylvester Steffen's "Second Enlightenment Trilogy" The theme of the Trilogy'sfirst book, PRIMARYSCRIPTURE, is communication. (It is available from 1stBooksLibrary, www.1stbooks.com). QUANTUM RELIGION's theme is consciousness, the embodiedmindfulness that is born from the joined working of Reason and Faith. Theevolving ascendancy of purpose, of enlightened intention, is the fruit ofintercourse between Reason and Faith.QUANTUM RELIGION edifies the ground state ofa brighter humanism that is intentionally vitalized and nurtured in thedependent dynamic of Reason and Faith. Author Steffen argues the co-equalstatus of Reason and Faith, not only for purposes of advancing communal sanityand accommodated living but also for the enlightenment of religiousconsciousness, civility and self-realization.The themes of Economy (cosmic,natural), Ecology (spiritual and material), and Eucharist (soul/body mutuality)are joined in their unity context . . . the context of cosmic continuity andsymbiotic biology, and the common ground of cosmology, philosophy, theology andpolitics.
