Opis

In this final edition edition of Hurst's Religion, an Accident of Birth, the author takes us deeper on his journeys. From a war torn Middle East to the streets of Juarez Mexico, we see the unfolding of not only the works of a great physician, but the love of a humanitarian and his life's work. Hurst, truly a doctor without borders, explores not only his trials during the Vietnam war, the trepidations of secret border crossings in the desert many years later, and the exotic alleyways of the far east, but also the hearts and souls of mankind. In his final work, Hurst begs us to look deeper, not only at our beliefs, but at our purpose as human beings who have the ability to strive and go beyond our interpersonal borders. "We have seen a tremendous amount of history in our lifetime and so much injustice related to religion. Nothing new. When a Hindu mentioned religion as "an accident of birth," I knew I had it to build a book around it. This was to be a book to demand integrity in religion, whether Christian, Muslim, or otherwise." - CR Hurst.
