Open Letter to My Students 85: Back Again after WAB

Yes, after six months absence from this spot, I am back. If I needed an acronym to explain my “radio silence” (does anyone even know what that means any more?) it would not be AWOL (I am retired and don’t need any L) or MIA (I have, thank God, not been in a combat zone), but simply AWAB, “Away Writing a Book” – a collection of my Open Letters no less! 

Yes, I have collected the best of my 80+ Open Letters to you, organized them topically, written contextualizing introductions to them all, and added several new Letters as well, to make a book entitled Open Letters: On Religion and the Human Condition. The CCAR is publishing it and expects it to be available sometime in the late Fall. Please watch for it.

And watch this space too. I will soon return with New Letters here as well.
