Unabridged Audiobook
I appreciated the course except for one thing. I noted that the lecturer seemed to assume he is speaking to Christians. He didn’t spend much time explaining Jesus as redeemer in the belief of His followers. He underplayed Christianity and then went on to talk about the greatness of Mohammed and Islam. I am not suggesting Islam is not important but Jesus was also a great man and Christianity in it’s most focused form (not Catholicism for example) is just as important. In the end of the lecture, he suggested everyone visit Mosques and temples and synagogues but left out of that list, churches. It almost seems as if the professor assumes Christians are the only ones who do not understand other world religions. I am Christian. However I have friends who are Jews and Muslims and even Buddhist and they will not visit a church or talk about Jesus. They think they know who Christians are because they think of all Christians as Catholic which is far from the truth of my life. And I am not trying to evangelize - maybe they do have a fear from some past experience that all Christians do try to evangelize...I have even had that experience. But my wish is for all religions to try to understand one another without trying to change them. I believe that is hard for probably Christians and Muslims the most.
Fully understandable and extremely helpful in understanding that religions are an important part of u estranging life
A great insight into some of the main religions of the world. Definitely worth a listen
