Theologian Preston Jones edited and published a book of correspondence between himself and punk rocker/naturalist/PhD Greg Graffin about God, religion, naturalism, and science.
This book was thought provoking. It was easy to read quickly, but also left me feeling that I need to take more time with it on a future re-read and really contemplate the questions it arose more carefully. I truly enjoyed the insights and questions raised in the book. I also now want to read Brideshead Revisited by Evelyn Waugh and Wonderful Life by Stephen Jay Gould, both highly recommended during Preston and Graffin's conversation.
