This book is unique. It would have been great as a textbook for the comparative religion course I took in college long ago, because the author delivers the information in a humorous, yet thoughtful way. I found the answers to many questions I had pondered about different faiths. I was inspired by just knowing how many ways humans find to connect to the Divine. Highly Recommend.

An answer to prayer. Curiosity about this whole topic has been bugging me. And I wanted more clarity to help me explain things to my son a little better. The stats and trivia alone are worth the price of this little gift from heaven.
