Synopsis "When Was the Name of God First Spoken: Correcting Misconceptions about Prehistory"

This well-researched nonfiction work is an exploration of the changes to human societies that occurred about 10,000 years ago. For 150,000 years homo sapiens inhabited this planet as intelligent, sociable, fearless hunter-gatherers. They lived without religious beliefs, without social laws, and without leadership. War did not exist. There were no rapes or abuse of any kind. They had never uttered the Name of God because the concept of a supernatural God was inconceivable. Yet today human beings are violent, aggressive, fearful, and superstitious. Every human culture has religion, social laws, and political structure. What changed? And how did human beings come to conceive of Supernatural?Unlike other scholarly attempts to understand the distant past, this work is not dependent upon the author's imagination.This discussion is an empirical extrapolation based on facts gleaned from many academic disciplines: anthropology, archaeology, art history, reproductive biology, psychology, and linguistics. The author began with an analysis of prehistoric cave paintings in southwestern Europe and followed clues around the world and into the mind of every human being who has ever lived. It is not guesswork.With a narrative style and many illustrations When Was the Name of God First Spoken is an eminently readable discussion of the author's intellectual pursuit and the ideas that were brought to light. It is not about God. It is about the Name of God and how mankind first came to speak that word.
