Ancient beliefs and modern myths
In this book, the author adopts the idea that man's little faith in religion is increasingly undermined as he tries to accommodate religion within his modern outlook, and he is convinced that faith can only be restored by dispelling this illusion that prevents man's intelligence from seeing religion for what it really is. Modern man believes in superstitions just as much as the most primitive individuals, but in a manner that is in keeping with the twentieth century. Modern superstitions are more deadly and dangerous than their predecessors. Martin Lings focuses his attention on the Christian faith, but draws on his extensive knowledge of many other religions. Ancient Beliefs and Modern Superstitions is a powerful, simple, and easy-to-read defense of faith in religion.
