  Taking Religion Seriously with Charles Murray 14.04.2026 50хв

  This week on The Hamilton Review Podcast, we're pleased to welcome American Political Scientist, Charles Murray. In this episode, Charles discusses his book, Taking Religion Seriously. Taking Religion Seriously is Charles Murray's autobiographical account of the decades-long evolution in his stance toward the idea of God in general and Christianity in particular.

It is his first extended reflection on religion after four decades of writing on social policy and human diversity. Enjoy this engaging and thought provoking conversation. Charles Murray holds the F. A. Hayek Chair Emeritus in Cultural Studies at the American Enterprise Institute.

In 1994, "The Bell Curve" (Free Press), a New York Times bestseller he coauthored with the late Richard J. Herrnstein, sparked heated controversy for its analysis of the role of IQ in shaping America's class structure. In 2012, in another the New York Times bestseller, "Coming Apart: The State of White America, 1960–2010" (Crown Forum), Dr. Murray described the nature and causes of the cultural polarization that, by 2016, would shape national politics.

You won't want to miss a very special episode of The Hamilton Review. Jon D. Levenson, Albert A. List Professor of Jewish Studies, began teaching at Harvard in 1988, having previously taught at the University of Chicago and at Wellesley College.

In addition, one of his courses deals with the use of medieval Jewish commentaries for purposes of modern biblical exegesis, and another focuses on central works of Jewish theology in the twentieth century. Levenson has a strong interest in the philosophical and theological issues involved in biblical studies, especially the relationship of premodern modes of interpretation to modern historical criticism. Much of his work centers on the relationship of Judaism and Christianity, both in antiquity and in modernity, and he has long been active in Jewish-Christian dialogue. His book Resurrection and the Restoration of Israel: The Ultimate Victory of the God of Life (Yale University Press, 2006) won a National Jewish Book Award and the Biblical Archaeology Society Publication Award in the category of Best Book Relating to the Hebrew Bible published in 2005 or 2006.

His book, The Love of God: Divine Gift, Human Gratitude, and Mutual Faithfulness in Judaism, was published in 2016 by Princeton University Press. His latest book is Israel's Day of Light and Joy: The Origin, Development, and Enduring Meaning of the Jewish Sabbath (Eisenbrauns, 2024).
