Description

"O'Malley ranges widely through modern science, classical philosophy, literature and art, and the religious traditions of East and West. Yet he also probes his own heart. In part, God - The Oldest Question is an account of O'Malley's own intellectual and spiritual journey, which included a shattering crisis of faith only a year before he was to be ordained a priest - a crisis that a careful study of the arguments of atheist thinkers helped him later resolve. This painfully honest and intellectually inspiring book enlists both the mind and the heart in an ultimately satisfying quest for God."--BOOK JACKET.
