Summary: | In 'The Universe Is On Our Side', Bruce Ledewitz argues that there has been a breakdown in American public life that no election can fix -Americans struggle to even converse about politics and the usual explanations for our condition have failed to make things better. America's future requires that we begin a new story by each of us asking a question posed by theologian Bernard Lonergan: Is the universe on our side? According to Ledewitz, when we commit to live honestly and fully by our answer to that question, even if our immediate answer is no, America can begin to heal. |
