How the New Fundamentalisms Divide Us

In this episode of Gospelbound, Collin Hansen is joined by Morton Schapiro and Gary Saul Morson, authors of Minds Wide Shut: How the New Fundamentalisms Divide Us (Princeton University Press). Schapiro and Morson describe fundamentalism as “radical simplification of complex questions and the inability to learn either from experience or from opposing views.”

Among their proposed solutions is a recovery of casuistry, or employing case studies especially from great literature for experience-based learning.
