It's an extremely fun book of comparative religion. Each gets a two page synopsis in a visual encyclopedia manner that's enjoyable to read. Covering everything from Amish to Zoroastrianism. Concluding with how to leave a religion or cult if you decide to start thinking for yourself or simply converting from one to another. And finally the last chapter on starting your own religion. I was hoping this last part was a reprint of Timothy Leary's original "How to Start Your Own Religion" booklet of the 1960s but it's someone else's more modern article on basically the same theme.
Enjoy a book tonight!
