From Coconut Trees To Cults offers a critical examination of the evolution of religion from a skeptical viewpoint, arguing that religious beliefs and practices are primarily human constructs shaped by psychological, social, and environmental factors rather than divine influence. The author explores the cognitive foundation of religion, suggesting that human brains are wired to seek patterns and assign meaning, leading to the emergence of supernatural beliefs as coping mechanisms for uncertainty and fear.
