Summary

"Faith Across Time" explores the captivating journey of religious belief, charting the shift from ancient polytheism to modern monotheism. It examines how early societies used mythology to explain their world, and how philosophical thought later challenged and reshaped these traditional beliefs. The study emphasizes that the transition wasn't just about reducing the number of gods; it was a profound change in humanity's understanding of its place in the cosmos.

 
The book journeys chronologically, beginning with the diverse pantheons of ancient religions and their associated rituals. It then transitions to the rise of philosophical critiques, setting the stage for the emergence of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Examining the theological innovations and cultural impact of these monotheistic faiths, the book concludes by considering the ongoing evolution of religious traditions in the face of secularism and interfaith dialogue.

 
The book offers a unique perspective by emphasizing the interplay between philosophical ideas and historical circumstances in shaping religious change.
