This book was released on 2014-07-17 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1902, this book investigates the history and development of early religion from an anthropological perspective. Rather than dealing with religions that grew from the teachings of their original founders, such as Christianity, Islam, and Buddhism, Jevons considers those religions that were practised as a matter of custom and tradition. The title considers such subjects as the supernatural, life and death, animal sacrifice, and the worship of nature. It provides an introduction to the history of religion for students of religion, anthropology and folklore.

Book Synopsis The Emergence of Religion in Human Evolution by : Margaret Boone Rappaport
Download or read book The Emergence of Religion in Human Evolution written by Margaret Boone Rappaport and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-12-09 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Religious capacity is a highly elaborate, neurocognitive human trait that has a solid evolutionary foundation. This book uses a multidisciplinary approach to describe millions of years of biological innovations that eventually give rise to the modern trait and its varied expression in humanity’s many religions. The authors present a scientific model and a central thesis that the brain organs, networks, and capacities that allowed humans to survive physically also gave our species the ability to create theologies, find sustenance in religious practice, and use religion to support the social group. Yet, the trait of religious capacity remains non-obligatory, like reading and mathematics. The individual can choose not to use it. The approach relies on research findings in nine disciplines, including the work of countless neuroscientists, paleoneurologists, archaeologists, cognitive scientists, and psychologists. This is a cutting-edge examination of the evolutionary origins of humanity’s interaction with the supernatural. It will be of keen interest to academics working in Religious Studies, Neuroscience, Cognitive Science, Anthropology, Evolutionary Biology, and Psychology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Religion in Evolution These four lectures were delivered in the Vacation Term for Biblical Study at Cambridge, and are printed at the request of those who heard them. In Lecture I. I accept the statement of Mr Howitt in his "Native Tribes of Southeast Australia" that the South-eastern tribes who believe in an All-father are socially more advanced than the Northern tribes, who, according to Messrs Spencer and Gillen, have no "belief of any kind in a supreme Being who rewards or punishes the individual according to his moral behaviour." At the time of writing I had not seen Mr A. Lang's letter to Folk-Lore (xvi. 2, pp. 221-224), in which he argues, against Mr Howitt, that the majority of the South-eastern tribes "are in the more primitive form of social organisation."

Book Synopsis Deeper Than Drawin by : John F. Haught
Download or read book Deeper Than Drawin written by John F. Haught and published by . This book was released on 2005-10-01 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his book God After Darwin,Ó Haught argued that religious belief is wholly compatible with evolutionary biology. Now, he says that, while Darwin's vision is essentially correct, religious belief is even more revealing about life than Darwinism. Looks at the question of how religions may plausibly claim to be bearers of truth & not just of meaning. While he assumes the fundamental correctness of evolutionary biology, he firmly rejects the non-scientific belief that evolutionary biology amounts to an adequate explanation of living phenomena. Darwinism is illuminating, but it does not tell us everything we need to know about life. To find the deepest understandings of life & the universe, we may still profitably consult the religions of the world.

Book excerpt: "In his acclaimed book God After Darwin, John Haught argued that religious belief is wholly compatible with evolutionary biology. Now, in Deeper Than Darwin, he advances his argument further by saying that religious belief is even more revealing about life than Darwinism. Haught looks hard at the question of how, after Darwin, religions may plausibly claim to be bearers of truth and not just of meaning and adaptive consolation. While he assumes the fundamental correctness of evolutionary biology, he firmly rejects the non-scientific belief that evolutionary biology amounts to an adequate explanation of living phenomena. Even though Darwinism is illuminating, Haught argues, it by no means tells us everything we need to know about life, even in principle. To find the deepest, though certainly not the clearest, understandings of life and the universe, we may still profitably consult the religions of the world. Deeper Than Darwin takes up where God After Darwin left off, arguing that Darwin's vision is important and essentially correct but that we can still dig deeper in our understanding of what is going on in the life-story."--Provided by publisher.
Book Synopsis Evolution as a Religion by : Mary Midgley
Download or read book Evolution as a Religion written by Mary Midgley and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2003-08-29 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: According to a profile in The Guardian, Mary Midgley is 'the foremost scourge of scientific pretensions in this country; someone whose wit is admired even by those who feel she sometimes oversteps the mark'. Considered one of Britain's finest philosophers, Midgley exposes the illogical logic of poor doctrines that shelter themselves behind the prestige of science. Always at home when taking on the high priests of evolutionary theory - Dawkins, Wilson and their acolytes - she has famously described evolution as 'the creation-myth of our age'. In Evolution as a Religion, she examines how science comes to be used as a substitute for religion and points out how badly that role distorts it. As ever, her argument is flawlessly insightful: a punchy, compelling, lively indictment of these misuses of science. Both the book and its author are true classics of our time.
