About This Book

The work surveys the natural and intellectual origins of religious belief, combining discussions of astronomy, earth sciences, chemistry, and organic biology with readings of biblical narratives such as creation, Eden, and the Deluge. It examines the historical development and national roles of scriptural figures, critiques ecclesiastical authority and miracle claims, and offers anatomical and physiological chapters on tissues, digestion, nutrition, and alcohol's effects. Later sections consider the nature of mind and soul, sin and salvation, visions and planetary deities, and conclude by advocating individual moral autonomy and practical rules for conduct.
