About Brian Morris

As a former journalist/PR, and well versed in secular politics, writing Sacred to Secular was inevitable. World travel shaped Brian's interest in social justice -- wealth, poverty and religion in many countries. His book is critically acclaimed and with cover blurbs from Hugh Mackay and the Richard Dawkins Foundation. It's an analysis of Christianity, its origins and the harm it does. It's a call for Australia to become fully secular, and the Appendix details how anyone can take simple action on the 25 secular topics discussed in Chapter 9. Brian ran his own PR firm in Sydney for 20 years before retiring recently to the calmer climes of Adelaide.
