The Outrageous Idea of Christian Scholarship
- Binding: Hardcover
- Publisher: Oxford University Press
- Publish date: 03/13/1997
Description:
George Marsden's "outrageous idea" is that mainstream American higher education needs to be more open to explicit expressions of faith and to accept what faith means in an intellectual context. After examining why Christian perspectives are not welcome in the academy, Marsden insists that scholars have both a religious and an intellectual obligation not to leave their deeply-held religious beliefs at the university door. A religiously diverse culture will be an intellectually richer one, he argues, and it is time for scholars and institutions to take the intellectual dimensions of their faith seriously and become active participants in the highest level of academic discourse.
