Mitch Albom on NPR



This interview on NPR with Mitch Albom caught my eye. Not much time to write about it, but Albom's quote connects in many ways with the beliefs of teenagers outlined in Soul Searching, which is a book born out of the National Study of Youth and Religion. This is a great example of Moralistic Therapeutic Deism:

Mr. ALBOM: Absolutely no doubt. And I think that this is one of the key principles of what "Have a Little Faith" is about, that at their cores most true faiths are pretty similar. Be good to one another, take care of those who are less fortunate, be cognizant of a force greater than you, pray.
