Entertainment Theology: New Edge Spirituality in a Digital Democracy
Barry Taylor
Baker Academic, 2008, 256 pp., $18.99, www.bakeracademic.com
Entertainment Theology is Taylor’s effort to capture the mood and describe the landscape of contemporary post-secularity. The result is a fascinating but frustrating guided tour in which both guide and reader become lost as scenery flies by. Taylor is on to something when he describes the “democratization of spirit” in our YouTube age, but one wishes he had gone beyond “thinking out loud.”
