Religion is at the heart of man’s societies. ‘For a long time,’ Durkheim writes early on in his book, ‘it has been known that the first systems of representations with which men have pictured to themselves the world and themselves were of religious origin.’ Durkheim decided to examine how and why this phenomenon functioned and evolved - by looking specifically at simple societies and their religions, rather than at religions in more complex or developed societies.

"Le Livre de la Genèse" est le premier livre de la Torah (Pentateuque), et donc de la Bible. Ce texte est fondamental pour le judaïsme et le christianisme. Récit des origines, il commence par la création du monde, œuvre de Dieu, suivie d'une narration relatant la création du premier couple humain. Adam et Ève, qui forment ce premier couple, désobéissent et sont exclus du jardin d'Éden. Dieu détruit alors l'humanité par le Déluge, dont seuls Noé et sa famille sont sauvés.

The author Sri "M" is an extraordinary individual.

"Luke Volume II", often called "The Acts of the Apostles", completes the "Pentateuch of the New Testament".
