Professor Rodriguez-Plate has traveled the world seeking ways that people practice and/or fight against religious traditions. Convinced that religion has less to do with belief than with bodies, Rodriguez-Plate investigates the ways people connect with physical objects through sense perception: the things we see, hear, smell, taste, and touch are what gives us our spiritual dimension. Listen as Heather discusses with Brent their book "A History of Religion in 5½ Objects: Bringing the Spiritual to Its Senses".
