This concise and accessible encyclopedia contains nearly 300
entries on the world's major religions, as well as important
articles on important holy places...prophets and historical
figures...and spiritual practices and religions that predate
organized religion... - Library Journal. From Aaron (the first high
priest of Israel) to Zoroastrianism (once the dominant religion in
Persia), The Religion Book provides an encyclopedic look at the
practices of yesterday and today. Christians, Buddhists, Wiccans
and the rest may have questions about others' belief or even their
own, and The Religion Book expertly explains the similarities,
differences, and original ideologies of believers and skeptics
around the world. Are Nirvana and Heaven the same? Who are the
Raelians, and why are they cloning people? What's the difference
between Christian Scientists and Jehovah's Witnesses? Dogma? Karma?
Feng Shui? What do they all mean? Devils, ghosts, the afterlife--do
they really exist? If killing's a sin, why are there jihads? From
the prominence of Catholics to the head scratching of the Red Paint
People, The Religion Book is the go-to resource for all ages--and
it doesn't require dressing in go-to-meeting clothes. The Religion
Book: Places, Prophets, Saints, and Seers is a reader's convenient
parchment pulpit of easy understanding to some of the most
asked-about religious topics. Five hundred-plus pages explore 300
key religious figures, prophets, deities, places, and scriptures
that play important roles in the major religions of the world.
Willis respectfully explains terms and concepts as they relate to
their respective belief systems, whether mainstream, pagan, or
cultish.
