World Religions

About The Book

Religion can be defined as a cultural system consisting of designated behaviours and practises, world views, books, sacred locations, ethics, and institutions that connects humans to the transcendent or supernatural. A cosmic "order of existence," as anthropologist Clifford Geertz has put it, is something that religions connect mankind to. However, academics cannot agree on a universal definition of religion. This book will provide you a foundational knowledge of the world's religious variety by exploring the various and frequently contradictory theories and interpretations of spiritual and historical concerns. This book makes an admirable effort to summarise the key tenets of the world's major faiths and present them in an accessible and understandable format. This book is perfect for the curious reader who wants to learn more about different religions through firsthand experience. Understanding the similarities and history of peaceful co-existence among the world's religions is encouraged in the book Introduction to World Religions. There is an emphasis on learning from each other and living together peacefully regardless of one's religious beliefs.
