Is religion coming to an end? No, says religion scholar and interspiritual pioneer Netanel Miles-Yépez, it is an old and outworn idea of religion as "an-end-in-itself" that is coming to an end. "Religion," he says, "will go on; it is how we relate to it that will change, and must change, if we are to reclaim its genuine usefulness to us." In The End of Religion and Other Writings, Netanel Miles-Yépez has gathered a collection of his essays and interviews on the nature and purpose of religion, the depths and hope of interreligious dialogue, as well as his writings on Neo-Hasidism and Jewish Renewal from 1999-2019. In these highly original essays, we see the work of a brilliantly creative thinker in the early stage of his career, boldly asserting new frames of understanding for many of the issues spiritual seekers struggle with today.
