But \u003ci\u003ehow \u003c\/i\u003eyou make that choice builds on your entire personal history, your connection to communities and regions, and the systems that surround you. All of which have been shaped by religion. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eReligion is systems and structures and assumptions we didn't create or choose - and, to be honest, we might not even like or agree with.

And if you \u003ci\u003edon't \u003c\/i\u003elike how religion is shaping our world? This book might just be your first step in diagnosing the problems and agitating for positive change.
