CRI Resources: World Religions in Seven Sentences A Small Introduction to a Vast Topic

Description

With a sympathetic but not uncritical approach, philosopher Douglas Groothuis creatively uses a single sentence representing each of several world religions as a way to open readers to their depth and complexity:

• Atheism:“ God Is Dead.”
• Judaism: “I Am Who I Am.”
• Hinduism: “ You Are That.”
• Buddhism: “Life Is Suffering.”
• Daoism: “The Dao That Can Be Spoken Is Not the Eternal Dao.”
• Christianity: “Before Abraham Was, I Am.”
• Islam: “There Is One God, and Muhammad Is His Prophet.”
