A Rule of Etiquette?

Don't Talk About Politics or Religion
"After all, conversation between two people is very easy.  You find a mutually interesting topic, although it may lead to one about which you don't agree.  Then take care!  Much better to withdraw unless you can argue without bitterness or bigotry." ~ Emily Post's Etiquette, 12th Revised Edition, 1969
The library holds a wide range of books about religion and religious thought, including sacred texts/religious documents and interpretations of them.  Here's a very short list of recent titles that have received broad media, book buyer, and library patron attention.  Pick and choose and of course, we welcome suggestions for purchase.
War of the Worldviews : Science vs. Spirituality by Deepak Chopra and Leonard Mlodinow
