Against religion: The case for faith
Faith, unlike religion, is ready to confess its radical incompleteness and insufficiency--indeed, its brokenness.
Cross and context
For seven splendid years (1953-1960) I studied at Union Theological Seminary in New York. Someone told me that visitors to the seminary were occasionally brought around to the tutors' office, where I worked as a graduate student, in order to glimpse "the Barthian"—of which species I was apparently the only one in captivity in that place.
