About the Book

The Secularist's Bible confronts America's church-state crisis through the absurdist wisdom of Stan Biderman, a son of Holocaust survivors who grew up speaking Yiddish with a Texas accent.

As religious fundamentalists capture all three branches of government and dismantle Jefferson's wall of separation, Biderman channels thirty-five years of collected provocations into a battle cry. Through combative exchanges between Saba (the author as grandfather-philosopher) and Pfoot, his gleefully contrarian critic, readers encounter devastating constitutional arguments alongside wickedly subversive humor. At once political manifesto and personal memoir, with irreverent photographs throughout, this book transforms scattered anxieties about fundamentalist overreach into unified resistance.

The struggle is real, and the struggle is shared: for religious believers who cherish secular democracy and patriotic secularists alike, The Secularist's Bible is validation of what we're losing and a riotous rallying cry to reclaim it.



About the Author :
Stan Biderman is a serial creative and an accidental secular warrior. A University of Texas School of Law graduate, Biderman served as the counterculture business lawyer of Austin representing head shops, a gay bar, carneys, and a nascent single store called Whole Foods. Biderman was also CEO of BookPeople, the largest independent bookstore in Texas. Since the late 1980s, Biderman has been a leader in the revitalization of the hippest street in Texas, South Congress. He is the author of two award-winning books: Everything Changes: A Spiritual Journey (Plain View Press) and Bullet Trains to Yaks: Glimpses into Art, Politics, and Culture in China and Tibet (Irony Press), co-authored with his wife Kathryn Minette. Biderman and his wife are avid art collectors of provocative and political art amassed from all over the globe and currently live in Santa Fe, New Mexico. He has two children who occasionally think he's funny and five grandchildren who aren't sure yet. They call him Saba.
