In the Presence of God: Part III: “Religion” - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Religion and spiritual issues are at the core of human values and history. Humans have been conditioned to think that to question our religion means to sin against God and end up in Hell or suffer eternal punishment. Religions offer ready-made answers to nearly all our existential questions. The problem with religious belief systems is that they prevent us from seeking truth. Where did religion first come from, and how can we explain why humans seem so drawn to religious ideas? For centuries, religion has been the foremost source of human controversy. Religion has been a way to distinguish cultural and political beliefs. The study of religion can greatly impact our understanding of certain places, people, and events throughout the ages. Dr. Clarington will walk readers through the history of many popular religions and shed insight into how religion has been instrumental as a weapon and the cause of human division.
