Concepts: A ProtoTheist Quest for Science-Minded Skeptics
$22.50$18.95 Price reduced!!
Concepts first looks at how belief in gods originated and how Christianity came to dominate the western world. It then looks at the early Christians' concepts of their world versus today's concepts of their world to see what's still valid. It does this by going back to beginnings - of the Universe, of Earth, of Life, of animals and of humans. Then it looks at what's known about brains, minds and consciousness.
With that, it takes a fresh look at 'religion'-at how belief in God 'out there' might be a misconception of a Life urge that emerges from deep in human nature. Finally the book looks at our runaway material culture and suggests and ethic more supportive of evolution's trajectory. The book does not deride religious beliefs-whether Christian, Jewish of Muslim-instead it proposes a scientific alternative.
