6 of 6 people found the following review helpful. Brilliant writing and Brain stimulating often shocking revelations of facts and fiction. Stunning work of a lifetime.By Suzanne Mattes-BennettLaurence Gardner has done it again in this wonderful and thought provoking and revelatory explanation combining science; archeological exploration of the real facts of the duplicity and errors of current religious theory. Behind Christianity of the "fact finding; actual Historical records and who and how the bible was scribed and written what millions believe can not co-exist with the evolutionary facts that what we were taught about Creation; Evolution and God. It is about time someone like Mr. Gardner took on the challenge of this enormity and scope of an entire Christianity and Science to find that Facts behind the Fiction. Absolutely Brilliant Writing and just plain good old Brain stimulating reading. Definitely not for the non-cerebral literary reader and those who do not like to demand and asking hard and demanding hard answers. If you liked his other books this is one you must also have in your collection1 of 1 people found the following review helpful.

Gardner is excellent in presenting the driest material and making you want to keep turning pages. Starting in Sumeria and ending with the new testament this book is quite comprehensive. You will find many things can be controversial from a fundamental / folk religion perspective; Moses was a Pharaoh; but ultimately good information and lots of footnotes to read where the reference came from.56 of 59 people found the following review helpful. Highlighting Every PageBy Dan Sewell WardAs a voracious reader; I have a strong tendency to highlight passages in books; taking special note of new insights; important facts; and particularly well written passages which seem to contain all of the above. My difficulty in reading Laurence Gardner's new book; The Origin of God; is that virtually every page ended up with highlights; often two or three to a page. Yellow highlighting and post-it flags everywhere... even an occasional underline. In point of fact; Laurence Gardner provides a treasure trove of recent discoveries; lesser known facts; critical detail; unbiased analysis; and genuinely thoughtful understanding on the nature of the Biblical God. His latest book is an extraordinary; well-researched and well-organized treatise on a quest to find evidence that supports (or denies) the "long-standing and widespread notion of God's existence." The Origin of God subsequently considers a wide variety of sources; their credibility; how they agree or conflict with each other; and how the sum total of the resulting knowledge can lead each of us to a better understanding of God. Despite the controversial nature of the subject; the author is able to provide an unbiased; persuasive picture of the various ways that ancient peoples perceived their deity (or deities). In the process; The Origin of God provides the reader with the raw material to reach their own conclusions. Both scholarly and academically correct; the book is also highly accessible to the lay reader. The fact Mr. Gardner also writes well; clearly; and in a manner easy to understand; is just icing on the cake.
