Anyone who wants to read a mentally and spiritually challenging book about the origins of religion, read the following book:
A HISTORY OF GOD by Karen Armstrong.
I can promise you it will drop your jaw at least once when you see that the religions being taught today (be it Judaism, Christianity, or Islam) aren't necessarily true to their orginal form.
The beauty of the book is that it sticks to analyzing religion, and not spirituality. Because you and I all know that what you feel in your spirit and your relationship with God can not be properly articulated verbally. You HAVE to experience it. And no one could ever tell me what's real about my personal experinces with the Divine.
However, this book is still a very good read....by challenging the ideas I always believed, it actually strengthened my walk with God.
Holla if you'd like to know more about it
