Human-caused extinctions have never been more prominent in our political and cultural landscape. Extinction and Religion is a comprehensive collection of thought-provoking chapters that delve into the profound implications of a sixth mass extinction on Earth's history for religious faith and experience. It aims to address the critical question of how religious and spiritual practices are shaping our responses to this crisis. Edited by Jeremy H. Kidwell and Stefan Skrimshire, this collection seeks to establish a new postsecular agenda, articulating the critical questions, challenges, and pathways for thinking about religion in the age of mass extinction. Rather than offering isolated responses from various world religions, it aims to foster a holistic understanding of the interconnections between different belief systems. The book covers a wide range of subjects, including the multitude of challenges posed by mass extinction to our beliefs about the future of humanity, death and the afterlife, the integrity of creation, and the complex relationship between human and nonhuman life.
Wide-ranging and insightful, Extinction and Religion vividly showcases the myriad ways in which the threat of extinction impacts our faith and religious lives. It serves as a valuable resource for scholars, researchers, and individuals seeking to deepen their understanding of the intersection between religion, extinction, and the broader socio-cultural context. By exploring these complex issues, the book contributes to a more informed and compassionate response to the challenges we face in this unprecedented time of ecological crisis.
