5.0 out of 5 stars Infinity takes up a lot of space., 23 Oct 1998
By A Customer
This book clearly explains how the many divergent religious traditions are indeed referring to the same ultimate reality. If there is an infinite being, then it can be described in infinite ways. If there is an infinite being, then there is nowhere else for another infinite being to exist. This book is an extremely cogent argument for pluralism.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not an intro to religionS, an intro to religioN., 4 Feb 1999
By A Customer
if you are lloking for an introduction to world religions, look further; His book "religions of Man" is the "intro" the atlanta review would want. this is far more involved and is even better for you if you have a general idea of the religions involved. Fabulous, have purchased it for friends. Pay attention to the authors who are footnoted so extensively (Guenon, Coomaraswamy, schuon, Burckhardt).

4.0 out of 5 stars Great read, but not a follow up to World's Religions!, 31 Aug 1999
By A Customer
The World's Religions was the single greatest caption of the different faiths I've ever encountered. Smith's organization and articulation of his knowledge was so good in WR, that I wonder if I really understood Forgotten Truth. How was it a common vision of religions? I can't say I ever really enjoyed a book that didn't cover it's intentions, but I did. Know what you are getting into first though.
