Description
‘Because "God" is infinite, nobody can have the last word’What is this thing, religion, supposedly the cause of bloodshed and warring for centuries?
What is ‘God’ and do we need ‘Him’ in our modern world?
Karen Armstrong looks again at these questions in a refreshing and startling way.
God is not to be ‘believed in’ as a child believes in Santa Claus; religion is not a story to be proven true or false, but a discipline akin to music or art that answers a deeply human need, and can teach us to discover new capacities of mind and heart.
