Faces in the Clouds: A New Theory of Religion
Guthrie, Stewart (Professor of Anthropology, Professor of Anthropology, Fordham University, USA)
Guthrie contends that religion can best be understood as systematic anthropomorphism - the attribution of human characteristics to nonhuman things and events. Religion, he says, consists of seeing the world as human like. He offers a fascinating array of examples to show how this strategy pervades secular life and how it characterizes religious experience.
