摘要

Towards the end of his elegant, sharp-minded essay on the need to study religion in a dispassionate way (in other words, just as anything else should be studied), Daniel Dennett teasingly asks his readers whether they have heard of a people called the Yahuuz. Among these exotic folk, he informs us, people who reach the age of 80 are expected to commit suicide, and their remains are then gobbled up by the whole tribe. What we would regard as child pornography, they call good clean fun; they also perform, in hilarious public rituals, the things that civilised folk do in a lavatory. If readers are disgusted, Mr Dennett goes on to suggest, they may finally have glimpsed what many Muslims feel about western countries where people drink alcohol, wear skimpy clothes and ignore traditional ideas about the family.
