| Résumé : | A constant theme of public comment and mass media presentation in Ireland is the pitching of secularising "liberals" against "hardline" believers of the nation's different faith traditions (more particularly, the dominant faith traditions). In this Punch and Judy Show of the Ancients and the Moderns, the enemy is alternatively the Godless or the Godfearing Other. The effect of this false dichotomy is to conceal the very considerable overlap in concerns and values between believers and progressive secularists, notably, the mortal danger posed to both by, what might be termed, Market Totalitarianism. This article explores the notions of empathy, responsibility, conflict and hope as informing new, shared forms of alternative thought and practice |
