Why religion? [large print] : a personal story / by Pagels, Elaine H.,1943-author.(CARDINAL)142000;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 287-296).Why religion? -- Love and work -- A lifetime -- Going on -- Unimaginable -- Life after death -- Wrestling with the devil -- Listening to thunder.These questions took on a new urgency for Pagels when dealing with unimaginable loss-the death of her young son, followed a year later by the shocking loss of her husband. Here she interweaves a personal story with the work that she loves, illuminating how, for better and worse, religious traditions have shaped how we understand ourselves; how we relate to one another; and, most importantly, how to get through the most difficult challenges we face. Drawing upon the perspectives of neurologists, anthropologists, and historians, as well as her own research, Pagels opens unexpected ways of understanding persistent religious aspects of our culture.
