It’s really frustrating to me that the references are not actually references. For ex, he says Hanukkah was actually based on Nayrot, an older winter solstice festival, but there are no references and I’ve googled and can’t find anything about it.

Normal, stable people do not experience such quick massive breaks with their past views of life. If they move from religion to religion, they do so for reasons other than theological.”

I get that this book is from the early 90s, but I’m still disappointed in some of the terminology in so far (e.g. “gypsies” and “heathen Chinese.” The latter may be sarcasm, it’s hard to tell, but it’s still unsettling to read.)
