Dr. Lance Grande is a Distinguished Service Curator Emeritus at the Field Museum. Dr. Grande's research covers many aspects of fossil and living fishes, including the early development of North American freshwater fish fauna. Over the last 30 years, he has led numerous field trips to collect fossils from Fossil Lake, a 52-million-year-old lake bed in Wyoming. He is the author of The Evolution of Religions: A History of Related Traditions.


 


In this episode, we focus on The Evolution of Religions. We start by talking about what we can learn about religion through an evolutionary perspective, what (organized) religion is, and whether humans are predisposed to religiosity. We explore how societies moved from supernaturalism to organized religion, and from polytheism to monotheism. We talk about the major branches of Indigenous Eastern and Indigenous Western organized religion, and we go through the major religions, including Hinduism, Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism; and then we look at the West, and talk about Greco-Roman polytheism, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Finally, we discuss current trends in religiosity and the future of humanity.
