Query: The End of Faith

I found the book very provocative. It explores the different faiths and how some of the beliefs formulated centuries ago are no longer relevant to the modern ways of viewing the world. ie. virgin births. In addition, many of the current religious beliefs are destructive. ie. the notion of "honor killings" by the father of a daughter who is raped to restore the family honor. No religion is spared the authors scrutiny. I found many ideas helpful. For example, the author defines love as enhancing the happiness and sharing suffering of another person. I highly recommend the book because it stimulated me to examine my own faith in a more rational way.
