1. Of Games And God
An interdisciplinary study arguing that religious life can be understood as a form of structured play: ritualized, rule-governed activities that generate meaning, authority, and social bonds. Drawing on philosophy, anthropology, and game theory, it examines how religious practices function like games—shaping virtues, sacredness, and identity—while defending the normative and existential significance of religion and proposing a pluralistic, tolerant way to think about religious difference.
