Résumé ou extrait
  • For the first time, religious self-identification is on the decline in America. Some analysts have cited as cause a post-9/11 perception : that faith is a source of aggression, intolerance, and divisiveness - something bad for society. But how accurate is that view ? With deep learning and sympathetic understanding, Karen Armstrong sets out to discover the truth about religion and violence in each of the world’s great traditions, taking us on an astonishing journey from prehistoric times to the present.
