This book argues that religion has emerged over evolutionary time as a strategy for managing the transmission, contraction, and eradication of infectious disease.

From purity and pollution codes to blood sacrifices and irrational beliefs, the book shows how religion supports not only the physiological immune system, but the behavioral and psychological immune systems as well. The book also addresses those moments when it appears that religion becomes maladaptive, that is, when religion causes “autoimmune problems,” such as celibacy and anti-vaccination.

Engaging material ranging from evolutionary and social psychology to human behavioral ecology, biological anthropology, Darwinian medicine, and religious studies, the book proposes that in order to understand the human animal's enduring fascination with religion, one must take into account the enduring need to manage infectious disease.

An intelligent and wholly 21st-century perspective on religion. Thomas B. Ellis masterfully explains how the behavioral immune system is causally responsible for many of the curiosities surrounding human religiosity. A forward-pointing contribution to the scientific study of religion. * Robert C. Fuller, Emeritus Professor, Bradley University, USA * [ A] fascinating study of religious faith and its role in human survival Worthwhile reading for anyone interested in the multifaceted ways in which science can be used to investigate religion. * Theology *
