%X Charles Taylor¡¯s Gifford lectures published as A Secular Age has stimulated much discussion. In preparing for his lectures Charles re-read the Gifford lectures of William James. He wrote Varieties of Religion Today as an appreciative criticism of James¡¯s Varieties of Religious Experience. In this commentary I address Taylor¡¯s criticisms of James in terms of relationships between institutional and individual religion, belief in God, and psychopathology in a secular age.
