Atheism Worldwide: the Final Truth About Today's Religions and Wars Bobby T Gordon Lrg edition

Atheism Worldwide: the Final Truth about Today's Religions and Wars Religion has been a sensitive issue for centuries. Ever since the dawn of time, prehistoric people have created a system of worship to some deity. The deity itself may change from one culture to another starting from the sun worshippers, the Allah of the Middle East, Jesus Christ of the West and even the gods of Greek and Roman legends. Every culture has an own deity, their own rules and system of worship. Even before, each culture comes with their own sense of faith and belief that theirs is the right god, the omnipotent and omniscient one that provides them with their daily needs and guides them to a greater good. History also shows that even during these old times, the different faith of cultures have sparked debates, arguments and eventually violence in their believers. In modern times, you would think that this kind of problem has already been abolished. We would like to believe that humanity has already managed to reach a semblance of balance and understanding between different religions and the people who follow them. Unfortunately, this is not the case at all. As different religions started to sprout, individuals have become more divided, resulting to even bigger wars and loss of life. This is why it is not really surprising that some experts today are citing correlations between violence and religion. But exactly how true is it? More importantly, how large is the impact of religion in the thousands of wars the Earth witnessed during its existence of roughly 4 billion years? This eBook will attempt to discuss the concept of War and Religion and the intricate details leading up to it. The discussion not only aims to provide a clearer understanding of religion but also wishes to probe how this particular centuries-old problem could be alleviated. At the same time, the book aims to introduce new concepts, ideas and shed light to terminologies that are often connected with religion. Through this, readers would be able to grasp distinctions over different concepts such as spirituality, atheism, theism, faith, agnosticism and many more. Factual information along with philosophical ideas coming from scholars is also presented in a cohesive manner, allowing readers to arrive to their own conclusions. By the end of this book, the author is hoping to shed a better light on religion and how it relates to war and to peace as well.
