Unlike the recent authors who emphatically say No! or Yes! to God, Michael Krasny joins the millions who know they don't know. As a radio host, college professor, and literary scholar, he has spent decades leading conversations on every imaginable topic. He has discussed life's most important questions with the foremost thinkers in virtually every discipline. And yet answers to some questions - the big, three-o'clock-in-the-morning questions - elude him. Despite this, Krasny does not discount belief systems or ridicule faith. Instead, he seeks. In Spiritual Envy he explores morality, eternal life, why we do good, and why evil sometimes triumphs, and his quest is informed by artists, scientists, world events and even films. Personal and universal, timely and timeless, this is a deeply wise yet warmly welcoming conversation, an invitation to ask one's own questions - no matter how inconclusive the answers.
