God: A Human History by Reza Aslan - Book Summary - Abbey Beathan
(Disclaimer: This is NOT the original book.)
A call to embrace a deeper and more passionate understanding of God.
A book about religion through a different perspective. In this title, Reza Aslan talks about the history of religion as an extended period of time where individuals try to understand the divine by giving it human traits and even emotions. It happens in most religions, like in ancient greek mythology where every god had a human appearance and a different personality. The purpose of this book is more than explaining the history of our perception of God but also trying to find out why we humanize the divine in order to develop a stronger and deeper spirituality.
