Many of us speak to ourselves in demeaning and hurtful ways, using language we would never use with anyone else.

Yet religious affiliation is declining because the old and new age religions fail to offer valuable insights. The Puzzle of Religion isn't another compilation of spiritual anecdotes and clichés, nor is it another history lesson on religion. Instead, Douglas ...
