Abstract
Within a culture enthralled by "the con," those myriad forms of confidence-selling, calls to worship that cry "INSERT SOUL HERE" at every turn, David Dark commends the sacred practice of redemptive skepticism. Exploring the ways fake urgency often trumps real urgency and promises of pseudo-intimacy often crowd out the possibility of real relationships, Dark considers the ways religious traditions and popular culture offer resources for questioning the status quo and reorienting ourselves.
