How to Pick a Religion

Autor Trevor Barnes
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 28 noi 2011
Pascal wagered that if you can't be sure whether or not God exists, then it is better to be on the safe side. If you agree with him, then this is the book for you.
This book is organised as a thematic consumer guide to religion, looking at the benefits (and costs) of different world religions from the viewpoint of the believer. Whether you're interested in money, sex and power, or art, science, and relaxation, How To Pick A Religion will help you identify the religion that is right for you. With its wry humour and broad approach, Trevor Barnes' book is the perfect counterpoint to a world which is becoming polarised between religious fundamentalism and atheist self-righteousness. When David Beckham famously said, "I definitely want Brooklyn to be christened, but I don't know into what religion yet," this is the book he needed.
