Suddenly in the twenty-first century religion has become a political power. It affects us all whether were religious or not. If were not in danger of being blown up by a suicide bomber weve got leaders to whom God speaks ordering them to start a war. Were beset by people who demand that we give ourselves to Jesus while they smugly assure us of their own superiority & inherent goodness. Were surrounded by those who noisily reject science while making full use of the benefits science brings; by the spiritual ones; the ones who believe in magic; & theres the militant atheists berating us all for our stupidity. We wouldnt object to what people believed if only theyd keep it to themselves. We want to make up our own minds about what we believe but its difficult to do this. Everyone has to face the dilemma that we all die but no one knows for certain what death actually is. Is it the end of our identity or a doorway to another life? Whichever we choose our choice is a fantasy that determines the purpose of our life. If death is the end of our identity we have to make this life satisfactory whatever satisfactory might mean to us. If it is a doorway to another life what are the standards we have to reach to go to that better life? All religions promise to overcome death but theres no set of religious or philosophical beliefs that ensures that our life is always happy & secure. Moreover for many of us what we were taught about a religion severely diminished our self-confidence & left us with a constant debilitating feeling of guilt & shame. Through all this turmoil comes the calm clear voice of eminent psychologist Dorothy Rowe. She separates the political from the personal the power-seeking from the compassionate. She shows how if we use our beliefs as a defence against our feelings of worthlessness we feel compelled to force our beliefs on to other people by coercion or aggression. However it is possible to create a set of beliefs expressed in the religious or philosophical metaphors most meaningful to us which allow us to live at peace with ourselves & other people to feel strong in ourselves without having to remain a child forever dependent on some supernatural power & to face life with courage & optimism. ...
