Beyond Belief: Finding meaning beyond myth (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798283891958)

What happens when belief no longer explains what we feel? When religion fails, but the sacred still calls?

Beyond Belief is a groundbreaking work of spiritual clarity, emotional depth, and fierce honesty. Scott Pettifer dismantles the institutions and ideologies that shaped religious life and reveals what may still be real underneath them.

This is not a book against faith. It's a book that asks: what came before doctrine? What got lost? And what if we're not broken for questioning, but human for doing so?

Spanning ancient ritual, neuroscience, trauma theory, and forgotten mystics, Beyond Belief traces how raw spiritual experience became systematised, then weaponised. It examines how patriarchy reshaped the divine, how belief became law, and how people today are quietly rediscovering sacredness without the noise.

Whether you left religion, were hurt by it, still live within it, or never had a name for what you feel, this book will meet you where you are. Not with answers. But with language, coherence, and care.
