An essay is presented which reviews the book "Religion Without God" by the late legal philosopher and author Ronald Dworkin, focusing on Dworkin's views about values and religious experience. The relationship between law and religion is mentioned, along with American jurisprudence and Islamic law. A series of lectures that Dworkin delivered at the University of Bern in 2011 are assessed, as well as religious faith and the U.S. Constitution’s Freedom of Religion Clause.
