What Is “God Is Not One” All About?

“God Is Not One” leads you on a journey of realization. A realization that, although most religions of the world share basically the same ethical principles, they do not share the same basic elements of doctrine, ritual, mythology, experience and law. The idea that all religions are essentially the same and that there is a religious unity prevalent  in the world has been an idea that has existed for a long time. This well researched book takes a look at the eight most powerful religions of our time and suggests that the idea of religious unity is nothing more than wishful thinking.

The Author Stephen Prothero puts this wishful thinking down to our “allergy to argument” which suggests that in regard to religion we simply do not want to create any conflict. The history of religious conflict certainly gives us good reason to keep our opinions to ourselves. Controversial Professor Prothero takes the view that if we are to be tolerant of other religions then we should know what we are being tolerant about. In “God Is Not One” he spells out what the great religions are about and shows how large the rifts are that separate us.

Why You Should Read “God Is Not One”!

In this book you will learn about what makes the major religions tick. What their base ideas are and how their different perceptions have been manifest in this third dimensional world we live in. “God Is Not One” is for people who do not want to continue living in an illusion and want to find out  the facts regarding the eight rival religions that rule our world. Only at this point of understanding can you truly become tolerant of other religions. This is not a book just for religious literacy students or professor’s. This book is for anyone who seeks the truth about religion and how it affects our world.

Pros and Cons of “God Is Not One”!

Pros:

*Well researched and informative regarding major world religions.
*No Holds Barred look at the good and bad sides of these religions.
*Easy to read. This is not a text book. Will keep you engaged to the end.
*Very well set out with a good problem and solution format.

Cons:

*Due to breadth of subject, does not include smaller esoteric religions.
*Does not focus on the spiritual side of unity so much although Stephen acknowledges this in his introduction.

“God Is Not One” Conclusion.

Professor Prothero writes for the general readership. He helps us make the connections between these ancient traditions and contemporary politics, economics, and culture. As with “Religious Literacy” and “American Jesus“, ”God Is Not One” looks deeply at how and why we create perceptions of religion and how it affects our world. Overall this is a great book and a great read. I would recommend this to anyone religious or non religious who has ever acknowledged the difference between god and religion.
