simonvv 's review for:
A History of God: The 4,000-Year Quest of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam
by Karen Armstrong
Interesting view of a former nun studying the evolution of God throughout time.
The evolution of God from the mystics to the god of the rationalist and mechanical viewpoint. Our modern God is one Newton invented.
The book itself is a tab bit too short in my opinion. Karen Armstrong's writing isn't the best I found.
There is a huge interplay between muslims, jews and Christian, I learned. Religion comes and goes and returns. Credere means believing, but also trusting.
Overall, this book has further increased my curiosity to other places.
