  Do you believe in God? Perhaps you think that religion is meaningless and has nothing to do with your life?

  
  
  

  This is a global look at the social, political and personal impact of religions. The text establishes a basis of understanding by debating questions such as is there a common view of what religion is? Why do people need religion? Are you religious? And what do you know about different religious beliefs? There is a simple history of the development of the major religions, a look at religious issues and what is done in the name of religion, the challenge of science and the future relevance of religion.
