The author presents a good foundation on the differences between indigenous religions and western religion with the emphasis on both time and its relationship to nature. I appreciated the new idea (for me) that Western religion is based on specific events and continues to rely on chronological reinforcement of its base elements while religions in the New World were based on stories with meaning and learnings instead of reinforcing a particular dogma. Secondly, the key point that western religion from its base asks humanity to own and control nature and other species from the get go; Adam & Eve were given the Earth to dominate. I struggled with the pseudoscience as I am committed to science and reason, I am concerned when ideas and hypothesis that can't be proven are the basis for a future. Overall really enjoyed the book.
