This is intended to be a thought-provoking book that does not favor one religion over another or a non-believer over a believer. It is not about good versus evil, or foolish versus wise. Rather, it is a philosophical and concept-oriented work that contains a variety of perspectives that may not have been considered before or may have been taken for granted. It is meant to promote self-determination of what we believe regarding nature, life, God, the future, death, prayer, and the afterlife, since the popularity of a belief does not unquestionably convert that belief into truth. While not necessarily trying to do the thinking for others, this book attempts to raise awareness and jumpstart our understanding of these concepts from an objective viewpoint. In that sense, the book is intended to stretch our imagination and enlighten us in the process, irrespective of our religious views—with the aim of promoting a non-judgmental live-and-let-live attitude.

For the sake of enlightenment, we need to acknowledge and be willing to step outside the realms of religion and science. The underlying premise of the book is that there is more to life than religion and science are capable of explaining.
