Why do humans seek the sacred - even without gods?
From fire in ancient caves to artificial intelligence in modern labs, this book traces humanity's timeless search for meaning. Our ancestors found it in myths, rituals, and empires. Science offered it through progress, psychology through the self, and today technology promises it with algorithms and digital dreams.
Sacred Without God shows how awe, ritual, and story are woven into our biology and culture - shaping everything from funerals and festivals to nations and smartphones. Written in collaboration with ChatGPT, it explores how the sacred never disappears, only changes form.
The search has never ended. It continues in us.
