| ![]() A Non-Believer's Guide to Understanding Religion: Past, Present, And Future - Michael Joseph ScanlonThis extraordinary book explains what you've ever wondered about religion, and then some. For anyone who's ever left the church, explored various religions, or questioned if religion is for them, A Non-Believer's Guide to Understanding Religion delves into religious beliefs in a way that everyone can understand. The book appeals to common sense, not past religious training or research. Author Michael Joseph Scanlon writes, "Religion has existed since the dawn of mankind. Every civilisation found on Earth and in the history of the world had its Sacred dimension at its centre. Indeed, the pyramids of Egypt are not a solitary or isolated instance of prehistoric stonemasonry that is Sacred. There are many other archaeological sites the world over such as the pre-Neolithic Göbekli Tepe in Turkey, which is 11,000 years old and which predates England's Stonehenge by some 6,000 years." The book covers the major religions in the world from their origins and how these beliefs have shaped history. This fascinating look at religion past and present also looks into how religion may exist in the future. About the Author: Michael Joseph Scanlon grew up in Belfast, Northern Ireland. "Major influences for my writing come from when I spent three years working as a volunteer in Indonesia in my early twenties. Here I found a complete society that still lived as a community in faith. This was irresistible to me. My life story from this point led to me following a road less traveled." A retired librarian, the author "had a desire to help those with no religious background to consider the possibility that God exists and to thereby bring them hope." He also notes, "No AI was used in the writing of this book." "This practical study of an emotional topic discusses the basic realities that non-believers want to know. It's up to you to find your own answers."– Lynn Eddy, VP of Acquisitions, Strategic Book Publishing Publisher's Website: https://sbpra.com/ End
