<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Warner stage dives into the Sam Harris, Karen Armstrong, Christopher Hitchens mosh pit of the God or no God debate--and body surfs up with a typically provocative perspective. The fact that the book's title is Warner's mis-remembrance of a Zen monk's quote is emblematic of his profoundly engaging and idiosyncratic take on the ineffable power of the "ground of all being."<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><i>Can you be an atheist and still believe in God?<br>Can you be a true believer and still doubt?<br>Can Zen give us a way past our constant fighting about God?</i> <p/>Brad Warner was initially interested in Buddhism because he wanted to find God, but Buddhism is usually thought of as godless. In the three decades since Warner began studying Zen, he has grappled with paradoxical questions about God and managed to come up with some answers. In this fascinating search for a way beyond the usual arguments between fundamentalists and skeptics, Warner offers a profoundly engaging and idiosyncratic take on the ineffable power of the "ground of all being."<br><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"At times in my life I've been an atheist, a Bible study teacher, a lover of quantum mechanics, and a believer that the universe is older and vaster than anything I could imagine.
