This book provides an exploration of the most controversial subject of the moment. 'Moralities to please invisible gods. Promises of heavens and hells to come. Passionate beliefs in the metaphysics of martyrdom. Well it's absurd. All of it. All of it. It's absurd, it's dangerous and it's wrong. A betrayal of human knowledge. A betrayal of human capacity. And yet, and yet and yet...here stand I, broken and cracked, reduced to this, this raging, raging, raging. This raging at an empty sky.' In this time of fundamentalists and fundamentalisms, "On Religion" is a considered contemplation on the complex issues of faith and religion. Following on from the huge success of "On Ego", Soho Theatre brings back Mick Gordon, in collaboration with acclaimed philosopher AC Grayling, to present an intensely stimulating and moving new play. "On Religion" opens at the Soho Theatre in November 2006.
