Complete overhaul of Roman Catholicism is proposed by Prof. Leslie Dewart in a new book, Religion, Language and Truth. Dewart, 47, teaches philosophy at St. Michael's College of the University of Toronto and has already made a name with an earlier book, The Future of Belief, published in 1966, which claims that there is no fixed truth. Dewart now argues that people's religious beliefs are determined by their language.
