Résumé
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights:#1 A god to serve does not necessarily mean the God who is supposed to have created the world and whose moral commandments are presented in sacred texts. In the Western world, beginning in the thirteenth century, God was sufficient justification for the founding of institutions of learning.#2 We cannot do without gods. We are the god-making species. Our genius lies in our capacity to make meaning through the creation of narratives that give point to our labors, exalt our history, and give direction to our future.#3 The most comprehensive narratives are found in the Old Testament, the New Testament, the Koran, and the Bhagavad Gita. But beginning in the sixteenth century, there began to emerge narratives of a different sort, such as inductive science.#4 The science-god is a powerful god that has given people a great deal of control over their lives. It is, however, imperfect. Its story of how everything began is, to say the least, unsatisfying. And its moral instruction is silence.
