Who is God? That’s a question that’s easy to ask, hard to interpret and never quite answered.  In this episode we talk about the third episode of The Story of God with Morgan Freeman – about God.

In the episode we will discuss the blues, the diversity and universality of God-talk, the emergence of polytheism and monotheism, Stonehenge and This is Spinal Tap’s Stonehenge, the role of culture in religious experience, divine manifestation in the brain, and the Osteen effect on America religion.

Barry mentions two books you will want to check out. Oprah: Gospel of an Icon by Kathryn Lofton and God: an itinerary by Regis Debray.
