Religion In History And In The Life Of Today is a book written by Andrew Martin Fairbairn and first published in 1884. The book is a comprehensive exploration of the role of religion in human history and contemporary society. Fairbairn, a Scottish theologian and philosopher, draws on his extensive knowledge of religious traditions from around the world to offer a nuanced and insightful analysis of the ways in which religion has shaped human culture and continues to do so. The book is divided into two parts. The first part examines the historical development of religion, tracing its origins in prehistoric times and following its evolution through the major world religions, including Hinduism, Buddhism, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Fairbairn explores the central beliefs, practices, and institutions of each religion and considers their impact on the societies in which they emerged. The second part of the book focuses on the role of religion in contemporary society. Fairbairn considers the challenges facing religion in the modern world, including the rise of secularism, the impact of science and technology, and the changing nature of religious belief and practice. He also explores the ways in which religion continues to influence social and political issues, including morality, justice, and human rights. Throughout the book, Fairbairn emphasizes the importance of understanding religion as a complex and multifaceted phenomenon that has both positive and negative aspects. He argues that religion has the potential to be a force for good in the world, but that it can also be a source of conflict and division. Ultimately, he suggests that a deeper understanding of religion is essential for creating a more just and peaceful world. Religion In History And In The Life Of Today is a seminal work in the field of religious studies and remains relevant today for anyone interested in understanding the role of religion in human culture and society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
