Abstract
"In God is Red, Vine Deloria, Jr., generally recognized as today's leading Indian spokesman, offers an alternative to Christianity through a return to Indian beliefs and concepts. He explains that Christianity, an imported religion, has failed both in its theology and its application to social issues. We must, the author urges, seek God here in the North American landscape and think like its first inhabitants, the Indians, in terms of "space"; i.e., the land around us, its feel and its richness. This challenging call to a new religious freedom may startle many, but few will be able to avoid the issues that it raises."--Back cover.
