The Evolution of God Free Audiobook Download by Robert Wright
In the late 19th century and early 20th century, the idea of evolution by natural selection was controversial and many scientists argued for a form of evolution that would lead to God's ultimate salvation. Robert Wright argues that this idea of supernatural redemption through evolution is an outdated view. In his book, The Evolution of God, Wright argues that while individual people may be redeemed by god-like powers in their life time, God himself cannot evolve into anything better than he already is because he has always been perfect.
One of the most hard to believe topics and concepts in the Bible is that God changed his mind about how he wanted us to be. Robert Wright takes us on a journey through the Old Testament, the New Testament and ancient Greek philosophy, to show how God has evolved from an intolerant figure into one who embraces diversity and change. Robert Wright's Evolution of God reads like a captivating novel and detailed overview of Christianity. It demonstrates how different cultures have embraced the idea of a changing God for their own purposes.
Author Robert Wright examines the evolution of God from the perspective of science and religion in "The Evolution of God." In this epic story, Wright travels through time to examine how religions have formed and evolved as well as their impact on society. Through his journey, he explores various theories about the history of God and why we are still fighting over what may be nothing more than a fairy tale.
This audiobook was a compelling and informative listen. The author presents his argument in an engaging way, and the narrator does a wonderful job at bringing this book to life. It is fascinating how Wright has made it possible for people who never had any intention of reading or listening to a book on religion to receive such an education about the nature of God.
The Evolution of God is a detailed examination of the relationship between God, humankind and the universe. The book follows the evolutionary process from its beginning to where we are now. Throughout the reading, Wright balances his scientific perspective with a rhetorical critique of certain religious practices such as prayer and church services.
This audiobook is a realistic view of the life of God and what might have led to humanity's eventual discovery that there really was a "supreme being". It tells the story of Robert Wright's own personal journey and how he came to write this book.
