Religious Thoughts: A Historical Perspective

Religion is a small word, but it has a huge impact on both life and death. In Religious Thoughts, author James Watson takes a look at the history of religion through the years and delves into how the various manmade religions were formed and why.

Through this historical exploration of religious texts, Watson addresses a host of questions addressing religion, its origins, and its mutations. Religious Thoughts asks: " Why, in the beginning, were just three major religions formed? " Why were the minor religions-such as Protestant, Methodist, Baptist, and Presbyterian-started? " Did these religions coincide with or cause directly or indirectly major military conflicts? " How did religion become so diverse and corrupt? " Why and how did the manmade religions evolve?

Thoroughly researched, Religious Thoughts asks a wide range of thought-provoking questions and presents Watson's opinions and concerns. It presents a historical time travel through centuries of religious changes, documenting the history of the Abrahamic religions.
