BILL MOYERS ON FAITH & REASON

How can two creative minds reason their way to such different conclusions about faith? Two provocative authors Mary Gordon and Colin McGinn bring their views on religion to Bill Moyers on Faith and Reason. Gordon, the well-known American writer, brings her viewpoint as a Christian. "I like a religious perspective," she says. "It seems to create a language that explains more things about human beings than other languages do." McGinn, a philosopher, who talks about his own journey from belief to disbelief, sees the world differently. "I think there's too much tolerance of faith, and there's not enough respect for reason," he says. "For the last 30 to 50 years reason has been under attack."
