Designs & illustrations completed
for Alain de Botton’s new literary
venturea religion for atheists.
‘The most boring question to ask
about religion is whether or not the
whole thing is “true”. It’s a
measure of the banality of recent
discussions on theological matters
that it is precisely this matter
which has hogged the limelight,
pitting a hardcore group of
fanatical believers against an
equally small band of fanatical
atheists.. The new religion would
rely on art and philosophy, but put
them to overtly didactic ends: it
would use the panoply of
techniques known to traditional
religions (buildings, great books,
seminaries) to try to make us good
according to the sanest and most
advanced understanding of the
word.’
