Travel back in time and discover the origins of religion through the eyes of Andrew Lang, a prominent anthropologist of the late 19th century. In 'The Making of Religion', Lang challenges common beliefs about the development of the concept of God, revealing that it actually originated in the lowest-known grades of savagery. He argues that religion is a moral force that emerged as a means to enforce the laws of society, and that Christianity was born out of a purified Animism that complemented the exclusive Theism of Israel.
