When religion and secularism meet, the result is often a labyrinth of misunderstanding. In this twelve-part series, which Newsday calls “rich, provocative, and enthralling,” Bill Moyers explores the complex region between rationality and belief, joined by some of the world’s noted writers and thinkers. The insights that emerge—about the creative process, the importance of myths and stories, and the human condition—prove as valuable as any scholarly treatise or theological tract. In Bill Moyers’ own words, “Most of us live in the gray world between faith and reason.” For those attempting to navigate through the maze, these bold, intelligent discussions can help illuminate the path. Presenting challenging questions and equally challenging answers, they shed light where an uncertain democracy and an uncertain world need it most. 12-part series, 24 to 57 minutes each.
