Description

This title was first published in 2001. Worlds Colliding argues that the prevailing worldview held by those in positions of power in Western government sets the bounds for religious tolerance.  It explores the degree to which a modern liberal state will allow a counter-cultural community the freedom to live according to its concept of the good life.
