Author Description

Did you choose your beliefs, or have you allowed others to dictate their beliefs to you? Do you know what beliefs are the most powerful and beneficial to have? The Final Religion teaches about beliefs that will improve the present and the future of mankind-and that includes you. As you turn the pages, you'll embark on a journey into your own mind, into your personal philosophies and beliefs. This journey will leave you with a better understanding of self, others, and the world; and it will set you free to create happiness in your life. Religions throughout the world have served a common purpose: they provide a set of beliefs we use to live our lives. Religious organizations have given directions on how to interact with others, to understand our environment, and to cope with the unknown. Religions were the first to attempt to answer difficult questions, such as: "Is there a God?" "What should I believe?" "How should I live my life?" The Final Religion explores the historical influence of religion and religious -organizations-with specific examples from some of our most commonly held beliefs and celebrations-and then it helps us to think for ourselves, to follow the dictates of our own conscience, and to shape our beliefs with the help of three universal elements: truth, justice, and love. The Final Religion enables: us to answer the difficult questions and to shape our own future. Book jacket.
