Exploring the intricate relationship between biology, culture, and religion, this book delves into evolutionary and adaptive theories of religious behavior. Mladen Turk critiques existing research, revealing underlying theological assumptions, and emphasizes that understanding religion requires a multifaceted approach. He argues that our religious behaviors significantly influence interpersonal and environmental relationships, while acknowledging the limitations of current theories that often oversimplify complex religious dynamics. The work ultimately advocates for a more nuanced understanding of the interplay between cognition and religious practices.
