ABSTRACT

In this final essay, Christopher Fici and Gerald S. Vigna summarize what is to be learned from these essays and point to the recognition that within the particularities of religion and spirituality there is a shared view of human dignity and the dangers to honoring it that grow ever larger in contemporary culture, politics, and economics. The authors highlight that the previously held opinion that to enter the public square, religion must assume the manner of reasoned deliberative discourse no longer holds, as public conversation itself has moved away from that ideal. To accomplish this agenda, scholars of religious studies and theology must accept the imperative to move beyond the campus even as they reform the classroom.
