Religion and Belief Systems in World History human response to (or faith in) some supernatural or suprahuman force has given spiritual sustenance to individuals and communities for far longer than the earliest existing sacred texts would indicate. Based on archaeological evidence of gravesites found in Europe and parts of Asia dating to over 70, 000 years ago, Marty tells us, "many neuroscientists believe humans are ‘hard-wired’ to seek meaning through rites and ceremonies, myth and symbols, ideas and behaviors." This volume presents a global survey of world religions (Christianity, Judaism, and Islam) and belief systems (from animism to Zoroastrianism), with major themes including how spiritual beliefs both supported and railed against war, and how religions expanded and divided across cultures and borders.
