Čovječanstvo u potrazi za Bogom

The book Mankind’s Search for God (1995 Croatian edition) offers a comprehensive comparative overview of the history of world religions and spiritual movements that have shaped human civilization. The work is structured as a systematic guide to the origins, development, beliefs, and practices of major religious systems—ranging from the ancient animistic and mythological beliefs of Babylon, Egypt, Greece, and Rome to major world religions such as Hinduism, Buddhism, Taoism, Confucianism, Shintoism, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Through richly illustrated chapters and analytical texts, the book explores common themes that recur across diverse cultures: the question of the origin of life, the problem of suffering and evil, the concept of the soul, the afterlife, and the quest to know Divine Truth. Beyond a historical and factual survey, the text also critically analyzes the impact of philosophical schools of thought and secularization on contemporary society. Written in a clear, accessible, and informative style, this publication serves as an invaluable resource for understanding the religious phenomenon, comparative theology, and the cultural history of humanity, offering the reader broader insight into the diversity of spiritual paths humanity has traversed throughout history.
