Is There a Sabbath for Thought?

Engaging with the works of philosophers like Pascal, Kant, and Nietzsche, this book explores the deep connection between philosophy and religion through meditative reflections on universal human experiences such as love, courage, and peace. William Desmond seeks to renew this ancient companionship by examining how philosophy can address questions raised by religion, rather than merely critiquing it. He advocates for a dialogue that transcends subjective and objective extremes, aiming for a deeper understanding of the divine and the intimate aspects of human existence.
