Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Quick quiz: What are the five pillars of Islam? What's the difference between Catholic and Protestant? Billions of people know. Most of us don't. Religion shapes cultures, laws, holidays, and conflicts around the world, and most of us only know the basics of our own tradition-if that. We hear about religious tensions in the news without understanding what's actually at stake. This book covers the major world religions-Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Hinduism, Buddhism, and more-explaining what they believe, how they practice, where they agree, where they differ, and why it matters even if you're not religious. You'll learn what the Reformation was, why there are so many denominations, what karma actually means, and how religion and politics got so tangled up in the first place. **RELIGION: What 8 Billion People Believe** covers: - **The Big Picture**- **Christianity**- **Islam**- **Hinduism**- **Buddhism**- **Judaism**- **Other Major Traditions**- **Indigenous and Folk Religions**- **The "Nones"**- **Religion and Politics**- **Common Misconceptions**- **Religion in Everyday Life**- **The Big Questions** No preaching.
