The first part explores the origins of religious beliefs and practices, tracing them back to their earliest roots in ancient cultures. The second part examines how these beliefs and practices have evolved over time, and how they have been influenced by different cultural and historical factors. The third part of the book presents a new perspective on religion, one that is based on reason, critical thinking, and a willingness to question established beliefs.Throughout the book, Boynton challenges readers to think critically about their own religious beliefs and practices, and to consider alternative perspectives that may challenge their assumptions. He argues that by doing so, we can move beyond the limitations of traditional dogmatism and embrace a more open-minded, inclusive approach to religion.Beyond Mythology: A Challenge to Dogmatism in Religion is a must-read for anyone interested in exploring the origins and evolution of religious beliefs and practices, and in challenging the dogmatic assumptions that often underlie them.
