Around the world in 80 faiths

Recommended Posts

....has anyone been watching this? I haven't caught them all (sorry if there's already a thread on this, I've missed it if there is :roll: ) but WOW what a programme! I'd pay my licence fee just for this. I'm not religious, well, I don't think there's a name for what I believe, but Peter Owen Jones is just amazing, and he really manages to convey the essence of the spirituality in EVERY faith he explores. :clap: He's like a HFW of the religious world!

 

Stunning locations, amazing people, incredible rituals and beliefs

 

I've checked the website but I can't see if they're releasing it on DVD or anything, I really hope they are, I think I will have to put it on my birthday list if they do! :lol:

I think he's great, better than HFW dare I say it, I mean I know it's completely different disciplines, but he appeals more, doesn't seem to have become so "commercialised" as HFW. He seems to love ALL religion and humanity so very much. I thought he was very inspiring.

Can I just say that I started looking for the DVD series and it seems it's not out, yet. But he's written quite a few books, so I thought I'd have a look on Amazon. The one I was particularly interested in is called, Bed of Nails, but it's out of print, I thought I'd found a copy and was about to order it when I saw it cost £136!!! :shock::shock::shock:

Needless to say I went to the library today and reserved it (got a long wait, there's two in front of me :roll: ) mind you, if it's that good I'll photocopy all the pages! :P
