Martyn Percy explores new liberalism, the churches and human rights in the European Union, football and religion, pilgrimage, demonology, common spirituality, religious attitudes to nudity, and the relationship between religion and advertising. The argument running throughout this book is that despite claims-and the appearance-of increasing secularity, the influence of religious themes and values on our everyday life remains pervasive."--Bloomsbury Publishing. 410 0$aReligious Studies: Bloomsbury Academic Collections 606 $aReligion and culture 606 $aResilience (Personality trait)$xReligious aspects$xChristianity 606 $2Christianity 615 0$aReligion and culture. 615 0$aResilience (Personality trait)$xReligious aspects$xChristianity. 676 $a291.1/75 676 $a201.7 700 $aPercy$b Martyn$0887310 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910807263603321 996 $aThe salt of the earth$94014820 997 $aUNINA
