Description

God's Words answer many ancient and very modern questions, for instance: if the Sacred Scripture has divine origin, could it rationally justify violence? Also, could it be possible to find a liaison between imperialism and mystic dogmas? How is it possible to challenge the roots of religious intolerance? Is Sacred Scripture a history book? Was religious literature written at once and in one place? Is dogma more important than scientific observation? How did the human Jesus become a Divinity? Who decided that God dictated a manuscript written thousands of years ago? Why does religion endure? Could a myth be a political tool? Is the zealots' violence vindicated by human texts or by God's words? The answers are critical for the pious observers and the opponents of religions, plus transcendent for self-understanding. "The way he connects historical power structures with the mythmaking of religion feels timely, even urgent… I'd recommend it to anyone curious about the roots of religious extremism, particularly readers who appreciate straightforward writing." Literary Titan Gold Book Award. "Sibilla well understands that, for far too long, holy books have been used to justify perpetrating the most hideous cruelties on nonbelievers, and that humankind will not move on from such depravities until believers free themselves from the need to adhere to such inhumane exhortations." IndieReader. "The book's astute analysis is made accessible to general readers with an engaging writing style that is accompanied by impressive interdisciplinary research and an eight-page bibliography. An acerbic, well-argued case against the undue influence of religion in public life." Kirkus Indie. “It’s not written like a dry textbook, but more like a conversation that makes you curious to keep turning the pages…Overall, it’s a smart, eye-opening read that makes you reflect on faith, history, and how we use sacred stories today.”- Discourse “Overall, this brilliant book will appeal to adult readers interested in religion, history, ethics, and public life, and all who value a careful examination of belief systems and their social consequences. Vey highly recommended.” Jamie Michele. Readers’ Favorite. Five stars.
