Stephen Bullivant Knihy

The United States is in the midst of a religious revolution. Around a quarter of US adults now say they have no religion, and the great majority of these religious "nones" are nonverts: think "converts," but from having religion to having none. Stephen Bullivant draws on dozens of interviews, original analysis of high-quality survey data, and a wealth of cutting-edge studies, to present an entertaining and insightful exploration of America's ex-religious landscape.

The book explores the broader phenomenon of atheism beyond the critiques of prominent figures like Richard Dawkins and Christopher Hitchens. It delves into the subtle and pervasive influence of atheistic thought in various aspects of public life, highlighting its significance and impact. By examining this wider context, the author aims to provide a deeper understanding of atheism's role in contemporary society.

The so-called T"Ftima prayer," O my Jesus, surely ranks among the Church's most popular prayers. In the space of just twenty-nine words, it broaches some of the great themes of Christianity: sin, forgiveness, mercy, heaven, hell. The authors offer here reflections on this prayer, resulting in a work of popular theology and spiritual writing.

Mass Exodus is the first serious historical and sociological study of Catholic lapsation and disaffiliation. Drawing on a wide range of theological, historical, and sociological sources, Bullivant offers a comparative study of secularization across two famously contrasting religious cultures: Britain and the USA.
