A Blasphemous Truth Christian Muslim Atheist
Bok av Aamir Van Zandt
A Blasphemous Truth is an up-close and personal account of how a born-and-raised Southern Baptist Texan finds his religious faith crumbling beneath him as he says goodbye to the churches and steeples of Christianity and hello to the mosques and minarets of Islam. But after 18 years, once again faith wanes, walls crumble and this time so does Aamir's faith in the idea of god altogether.
Aamir's religious, cultural and philosophical journey includes stories from a trailer park in Texas to the most highly contested piece of real estate in the entire world: Al Harm Al Shareef in Palestine; from a Sufi jewelry shop in Turkey to an aircraft carrier in the Persian Gulf.
This evolutionary pilgrimage leads Aamir to follow a string of logic to reveal one of the happiest, healthiest and most gratifying philosophical destinations there is: Freedom of Thought.
