Synopsis

For centuries, the world's religions have squabbled over their differences. At times it escalates and there are wars or even terrorist acts like we've recently seen. Some say there will never be peace because of the disparity between the religions and their teachings.

But if we choose to focus on the similarities between the religions, we find they outweigh the differences. In fact, there seems to be an underlying message that all the world's religions share.

In his timely new book, author Gary Beckwith does just that - based on ten years of research he explores the similarities rather than the differences. Included in the discussion are the scientific discoveries of our time that seem to validate the message of the religions.

News reports and commentaries today often mention that Islam, Judaism, and Christianity are connected and share similar teachings, but what are the specifics? The book uses plain language and specific examples of how all the religions agree, including Eastern religions like Hinduism, Buddhism, and Taoism.

Many have commented that what the world needs now is peace between the religions. The first step is learning about the similarities, and this book (published a mere 10 days before the tragic terrorist events in New York and Washington) can certainly play a role in that effort. Reading it will give you a new perspective on religion, and a renewed hope for world peace.
