    About this series

    BOOK 1 - ANGELS


    Angels have been a critical part of humanity for as long as we can imagine. Often depicted as benevolent beings, they have been at the center of many religious texts, especially in Abrahamic religions, Christianity especially.


    They have a long and varied history, and so, if you are wondering:

    • Who are angels?
    • Where did they originate?
    • What makes angels who they are?

    And more, then you have come to the right place.


    In this book, we will cover:

    • The varied origins of angels
    • Depictions of angels in religious texts, with a major focus on Christianity
    • Mythology surrounding angels
    • Famous angels in the Bible
    • Angels portrayal in modern times

    And much more.




    BOOK 2 - DEMONS


    Demons have been part of human history ever since we began believing in the concept of goodness by God. They are often depicted as evil, supernatural entities, and have been majorly featured in religious texts, most famously, in the Christian Bible.

    However, demons have not always existed.


    So, if you have the following questions:

    • What are demons?
    • Where did demons come from?
    • Are there different kinds of demons?
    • Where do demons reside?

    And many more, then wonder no more.


    In this book, we will cover:

    • What demons are and their origins
    • Demons as depicted in religious texts, majorly the Bible
    • Demons outside religious texts
    • Most well-known demons and their powers

    And much more.

      “There are two certain things in this life; taxes and death.” - Benjamin Franklin While this may sound like any other famous quote, it is very true and practical. However, as certain as taxes may be, we will not focus on that in this book. Instead, we'll explore this dark and distasteful topic that everyone prefers to avoid: Death represented as the Grim Reaper! According to scientists, death occurs in all living organisms at some point and is the complete end of life mechanism. Unfortunately, this definition isn’t very descriptive. It doesn’t describe how it feels to die. What will we go through? What can we expect to see? What are our options? Where are we going after death? To answer such questions, artists in the 14th century came up with the concept of the grim reaper to try and understand death better by giving it a face. This book will explore everything you need to know about the grim reaper, who people believe he is, and the myths surrounding his existence.

      To Understand Religion, Think Football: Sacred beliefs likely arose out of prehistoric bonding and rituals.

      Aug 11, 2016

      The invention of religion is a big bang in human history. Gods and spirits helped explain the unexplainable, and religious belief gave meaning and purpose to people struggling to survive. But what if everything we thought we knew about religion was wrong? What if belief in the supernatural is window dressing on what really matters—elaborate rituals that foster group cohesion, creating personal bonds that people are willing to die for. Anthropologist Harvey Whitehouse thinks too much talk about religion is based on loose conjecture and simplistic explanations. Whitehouse directs the Institute o
