"With insight, clarity, and passion, Paul Greene counters the 'truthiness' of ideas about God that sanction tyranny and oppression. Drawing on Christian, Buddhist, and Taoist sources, he seeks to resurrect a vision of the God whose powerful love empowers loving human agency. This is a timely book!"
--Lois Malcolm, Professor of Systematic Theology, Luther Seminary

"In one brilliant move--applying Stephen Colbert's concept of 'truthiness' to theology--Paul Joseph Greene jumpstarts a whole new approach to God-talk. Greene fearlessly takes on the 'bogus "facts" about God' that serve an imperial worldview and counters them with a concept of divine omnicaritas--the all-loving God of all. . . .
