Introduction -- Part I. Prometheanism -- 1. Ever-changing Images of God-Man Relationship -- 2. The Emergence of a New Type of Atheism -- 3. The Necessity of Unmasking Atheism -- Part II. Pilgrim and Tourist Atheism -- 4. Pilgrim Atheists and the Myth of Warfare -- 5. Tourist Atheists as Players -- 6. Tourist Atheists' Religion as Act -- 7. The Revival of the Comtean Dream? -- Part III. Beyond Prometheanism -- 8. The Primacy of Training over Truth -- 9. A Post-Secular Reading of Public Sociology -- Index.

This book examines the post-secular idea of 'religion for non-believers'. The new form of unbelief which is dubbed as 'tourist atheism' is not based on absolute rejection of religion as a 'dangerous illusion' or 'mere prejudice'. Tourist atheists instead consider religion as a cultural heritage and a way of seeking perfection. What are the origins of these new forms of atheism? What are the implications of the emergence of a type of atheism which is more open toward religious teachings, rituals, arts, and world views? Hashemi argues that public intellectuals must consider that it is a sign of a post-secular age in which believers and non-believers go beyond mere tolerance and engage in a creative process of co-practice and co-working.
