Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a world plagued by religious conflict, how can the various religious and secular traditions coexist peacefully on the planet? And, what role does sociology play in helping us understand the state of religious life in a globalizing world? In the Fourth Edition ofGods in the Global Village, author Lester Kurtz continues to address these questions. This text is an engaging, thought-provoking examination of the relationships among the major faith traditions that inform the thinking and ethical standards of most people in the emerging global social order. Thoroughly updated to reflect recent events, the book discusses the role of religion in our daily lives and global politics, and the ways in which religion is both an agent of, and barrier to, social change.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the long trek of human history, the adage that there will never be peace among the nations until there is peace among the religions has never been truer. The growing trend toward spiritually inspired violence throughout the emerging global village of the twenty-first century has taken a terrible toll on the lives of thousands of innocent victims. The primary purpose of this book is to address this issue head-on by examining the role that the earth's diverse faith communities can play in stopping the needless hatreds and hostilities that all too often arise from the search for spiritual fulfillment. At this stage of human evolution, nothing is more urgent.

Book excerpt: David W. Shenk looks at world religions and ideologies from the viewpoint of a Christian experienced in interfaith dialogue. Global Gods explores ten religious or ideoogical options, including African traditional religion, Buddhism, Christianity, Confucianism, the European Enlightenment, Hinduism, Islam, Judaism, Marxism, and Platonism. The author honestly assesses the strengths and weaknesses of each major stream. And he interacts with sophisticated currents of thought while keeping his presentation clear and accessible. Global Gods contributes to the growing conversation about the role of religion and ideology in society. In an increasingly pluralistic world, the issues Shenk explores are not only theoretical but have practical urgency. Selected by the Evangelical Christian Publishers Association as one of the top five missions/evangelism books (1996).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The answer, says career diplomat Carl Coon, must be sought in the distant prehistoric past, when intergroup hostility became ingrained as a pattern of cultural evolution. We are where we are now because our ancestors, for thousands of generations, organized themselves in distinctive groups that competed with each other, sometimes peacefully, but very often through violent struggle. We still witness this ancient pattern of animosity when the intermingling of different ways of life results not in harmonious cooperation, but in regional wars and conficts.".
