Produktbeschreibung
In "The Face of God, What Enoch Saw in Heaven," Dr. Kakembo takes a scientific approach to address mankind's enduring quest to crack the mystery of life and its purpose and meaning. He zeros in on the complex aspect of spiritual beliefs, including history, benefits, rewards for holding them, and the role heredity plays in their origination and staying power. Dr. Kakembo offers insight into the nature of supernatural powers that are the backbone of the beliefs and associated religious practices, and reveals the reason they have stood the test of time. Even though faith may provide meaning, such meaning is tangential to the ultimate meaning of life. In the end, Dr. Kakembo finds that, despite diverse symbolism, since religious rituals provide similar benefits, all religions are "true." But, as they are illusory, just a feeling, God and gods are us. "The Face of God," then, is akin to a book of life, as it provides answers to a lot of questions. The author takes a deep dive into: · The background of the preeminent theologians, philosophers, and academicians in the spirituality space · How our brains construct the image of the world and how we respond to it · How religion can promote healthy lifestyles and alleviate depression · How to reduce the risk of cardiovascular related death and increase life expectancy by adopting stress-moderating practices
Autorenporträt
About the Author: Dr. Kakembo went to medical school at Makerere University in Uganda, to Chelsea College in London for a master's degree in pharmacology, and to Bonn University in Germany for a Doctor Med. After an internship at Howard University Hospital in Washington D.C. in the US, he went into private practice as a family physician in Baltimore, Maryland, until his retirement in 2018. He finds the medical background a welcome advantage to probing the complex God question scientifically.
