Why I Didn't Speak To God

Synopsis

Religion is manmade. This is one of the principal messages that author Sam Hwang relays in Why I Didn't Speak To God. This book invites readers to delve into the crux of religion and examine man’s history in the light of the Bible. From the days of Adam to the present, the book traces man’s journey while throwing light on the other side of religion and the author’s personal views of it.

Hwang’s account is partly an exposé of the nature of religion (that it is subject to man’s aspirations and vested interests and built upon power and politics) and it is a chronicle of his relentless quest for truth. Hwang calls it, “a personal exercise to reconstruct what he knows.” It brings his experiences, thoughts and beliefs all in one place. From his baptism to his renunciation, Hwang tells his story and he tells it like it is. The resulting work is a trove of insights and new ideas that any freethinker will welcome.

Provocative and at times controversial, Why I Didn't Speak To God is an invitation to reexamine one of the most pervasive and fundamental aspects of society.
