Perceptions or Reality and Social Consequences

This book is about the changing perceptions of mankind from time to time of the world they lived in, and the gods they worshipped. Also how with the passage of time and increase in awareness and knowledge, their perceptions have changed, bringing it nearer to reality. But reality has even now eluded them. This will form an important subject of research which will require international participation. People still think in terms of a Christian god different from a Hindu god and who in turn is different from a Muslim god. They think of god in terms of punishments and rewards and favorite people. So each religion thinks of its concept of God as the only true God, and all religions have been functioning as clubs with dress codes, conduct codes, belief codes, waging war against each other, as they would for kings, and different political leaders. But this way of thinking will change when you combine revealed knowledge of different religions, with scientific findings, and apply logic to observations, and link the three together.
