Product Description

Val Webb attempts to set out intuitions or intimations of the Divine nature and attributes from the stories and poems of the world's religions.In "Like Catching Water in a Net", Val Webb is not out to prove the existence of a God or the Divine, but to set out intuitions or intimations of the Divine nature and attributes from the stories and literature of the world's religions. Casting her net more widely than Karen Armstrong in "The History of God" or "Jack Miles in God: A Biography", Webb delves deeply into the poetry and sayings of Sufi, Buddhist, and Hindu mystics, the nature religion of the ancient Mesopotamians, their kin the Israelites, and the Aboriginal people of her own beloved Australia.
