Every human culture has evolved religious practices. Clearly, there is something inherent in humanity about religiosity: it must fulfill certain needs that evolved with us as our modern brains developed. ATHEOPAGANISM explores how the evolution of proceeding brain systems contributed to the belief systems, value sets and religious practices that characterize cultures all over the world. And then it implements this understanding of the nature of religion in a science-consistent religious practice that fulfills the human need for meaning, connectedness, inspiration and purpose.

Autorenporträt
An activist, poet, musician and writer, Mark Green works in the public interest sector. He was the founding executive director of the largest environmental organization on the North Coast of California, Sonoma County Conservation Action, and led campaigns which transformed the land use, water and transportation policies of his region during his ten-year tenure with that organization. An atheist from birth, Mark began to participate in Pagan community rituals and seasonal celebrations in 1987. but in 2004, growing insistence on literal belief in gods in that community led to a critical reassessment that ultimately resulted in the book "Atheopaganism".
