This book uses evolutionary psychology as a lens to explain religious violence and oppression. The author, a clinical psychologist, examines religious scriptures, rituals, and canon law, highlighting the many ways in which our evolutionary legacy has shaped the development of religion and continues to profoundly influence its expression. The book focuses on the image of God as the dominant male in Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. This traditional God concept is seen as a reflection of the odominant apeo paradigm so evident in the hierarchical social structures of primates, with whom we have a strong genetic connection. The author describes the main features of male-dominated primate social hierarchies- specifically, the role of the alpha male as the protector of the group; his sexual dominance and use of violence and oppression to attain food, females, and territory; in-group altruism vs. out-group hostility (us vs. them); and displays of dominance and submission to establish roles within the social hierarchy. The parallels between these features of primate society and human religious rituals and concepts make it clear that religion, especially its oppressive and violent tendencies, is rooted in the deep evolutionary past. This incisive analysis goes a long way toward explaining the historic and ongoing violence committed in the name of religion.

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The majority of the world’s religions portray a god that is fearsome and male. This god is the source of violence and oppression, and his depiction demands reckoning. #2 God was created in the image of man. Men have historically used God to justify their worst impulses, and this has been evident throughout religious history. Men have sought dominance in the manner of male apes, using violence to obtain evolutionary rewards such as food, territory, and sex. #3 The god of the Abrahamic religions, and the gods of many other religions around the world, is a dominant alpha male. He has acquired power and used it to control material and reproductive resources. #4 The premise of this book is that God is not a dominant ape, and that religion is not used to justify out-group hatred or violence. Rather, religion is used to navigate interactions with other humans, and it is these instinctive drives that are behind every form of violence and oppression.

The book is about the Alpha and Omega God. It is my testimony in regard to the existence and the will of the Deity creator for the entire creation activities. I started to write about this supernatural and omnipotent God from the beginning, which is unknown time. I then proceeded in writing all the way to the time of eternity. In the book, I have talked and tried to prove the creatorship and rulership situation or condition of the Trinity God. I have done this to make peoples of this world believe in existence of the almighty and the ubiquitous God who caused every thing seen and unseen to emerge and exist as they are found now.
