Tuesday, March 9, 2010 at 7:30pm Interviewer TBD Tickets: $9 Moving from the Paleolithic age to the present, Karen Armstrong details the great lengths to which humankind has gone to experience a sacred reality – God. In her new book, she speaks of the significant number of modern people who want nothing to do with God or who question the efficacy of faith, and she examines why it is that theists and atheists speak about God in a way that profoundly differs from our ancestors. Armstrong makes a compelling case for drawing on the insights of the past in order to build a faith that speaks to the needs of our dangerously polarized age. She is the author of numerous books on religion, including A History of God, The Great Transformation and The Spiral Staircas
