Synopsis
"I don't say this about very many books, but Craig A. James's The Religion Virus can facilitate a wholesale change in the way we think about religion ... an engaging, entertaining, and educational journey ... packed with a lot of good information." - Secular News Daily Whether you're questioning your religion , agnostic , or even atheist , you may have serious lingering doubts and fears about losing your faith. Over the past 2,000 years, religion has evolved powerful ideas that, whether true or not, are incredibly infectious; religion fills us with desires and fears that are hard to see rationally. "I feel so much better now!" - Carolyn, who lost her faith in the beliefs taught by the strict evangelical church of her youth, but was feeling lingering guilt and fear. This book allowed her to finally release her fears and explore her spirituality on her own terms. The Religion Virus (an Amazon bestseller !) will take you on a fun , fascinating , and eye-opening tour of how simple ancient spiritualism evolved into the incredibly infectious religions we know today, punctuated with humorous and insightful stories of the author's own spiritual journey. By learning why you have doubts about your evolving spiritual ideas, you can finally begin to shed your doubts and start your real spiritual journey, free of the shackles of dogma. Recovering from religion's infectious hold on our minds is challenging. The Religion Virus will relieve your fears. When you close the book's last chapter, your understanding of religion will forever be changed . If you're questioning your faith, questioning whether God is real, losing your belief in the Church's version of Jesus, or wondering why we believe in the bible as literal truth, this book will help shed light on how faith and religion has become what it is today. Knowledge and understanding will free you from the doubt, fear, and guilt you're feeling., The Religion Virus is a fun and fascinating tour of how simple ancient spiritualism evolved into the incredibly infectious religions we know today, punctuated with humorous and insightful stories of the author's own spiritual journey. Whether you are religious, agnostic, or atheist, when you close the book's last chapter, your understanding of religion will forever be changed. "Ingenious. Craig James has cracked open the mystery of Religion's tenacity. It puts the pieces together into a fascinating, coherent model that makes sense!" - Dan Barker, co-president of the Freedom From Religion Foundation and author of Godless. At any given moment, tens of thousands of religions, branches, sects, and belief systems are competing with each other for survival in a battle as ferocious as anything in nature. But this battle takes place in our minds and in our culture. Religions are locked in an endless fight for survival, and with each generation there are winners and losers. Only the "fittest" survive. The trouble is, "fitness" has little to do with truth and everything to do with what we want to believe and fear. Religion has evolved for thousands of years, and in the process has become incredibly infectious to the human mind. It preys on our hopes, fears, instincts, and desires, and it's very good at it. Like biological life, ninety-nine percent of the world's religions are extinct, but the ones that remain are quite remarkable, the very strongest and best. "I don't say this about very many books, but Craig A.
