"Why is it that the majority of people from all socio-economic, education, and ethnic backgrounds ascribe to some sort of faith? What draws us to religion? What pushes us away? And what exactly is religion anyway? ... Stark offers a ... God-centered theory of religion in his book ... While his intent is not to insist that God exists, Stark limits religions to systems of thought based on belief in supernatural beings to Gods. With this God-focused theory, Stark explores the entire range of religious topics, including the rise of monotheism, the discovery of sin, causes of religious hostility and conflict, and the role of revelations" Amazon.com.
