What do we really know about how and where religions began, and how
they spread? In this bold new book, award-winning author Robin
Derricourt takes us on a journey through the birth and growth of
several major religions, using history and archaeology to recreate
the times, places and societies that witnessed the rise of
significant monotheistic faiths. Beginning with Mormonism and
working backwards through Islam, Christianity and Judaism to
Zoroastrianism, Creating God opens up the conditions that allowed
religious movements to emerge, attract their first followers and
grow. Throughout history there have been many prophets: individuals
who believed they were in direct contact with the divine, with
instructions to spread a religious message. While many disappeared
without trace, some gained millions of followers and established a
lasting religion. In Creating God, Robin Derricourt has produced a
brilliant, panoramic book that offers new insights on the origins
of major religions and raises essential questions about why some
succeeded where others failed. -- .
