For years, "The God Squad" has specialized in bringing religion down to earth and helping people incorporate it into their everyday lives. This practical guide continues their mission by examining religion's role at work, at home, and in major life passages. Through an exploration of various beliefs and practices, "Religion For Dummies" helps people find their own answers to life's big questions.

"Why are we here?
How should we live?
What happens after we die?
Why does evil exist?"

"Religion For Dummies" explains how the world's great religions answer questions that persist through generations. Authors Rabbi Marc Gellman and Monsignor Thomas Hartman are trusted religious advisors known as the God Squad. With wonderful wit and incredible wisdom, they host a daily talk show which reaches nearly 4 million homes in the New York area, and have appeared on numerous TV and radio shows.

This book is not a scholarly theological treatise; it's a lively, practical, hands-on resource that will help you better understand your own religion and others. You'll explore: Religion's role in the family and in the workplaceThe beliefs and practices of Christianity, Judaism, Islam, and other religionsReligion's impact during major passages in life such as birth, death, and marriageHow to join a religion and how to prayHow religion can help you deal with issues in every day life such as conflict, adversity, marriage, divorce, and moreReligious rituals and ethics

"Religion for Dummies" touches on lesser-known religions (such as, Zoroastrianism, Jainism, Sikhism). It explores how people of various faiths pray, celebrate life and death, and view moral issues. The book does not tell you what to believe, but rather encourages you to live as you believe and let your religion infuse every aspect of your life. It doesn't give simple answers to haunting, complex questions; it helps you find your own answers and pursue your own spiritual path
