I listened to a few interviews with Rainn on his new book and yes he gets spirtuality partly right and Christianity wrong. But it is a good pivot around the narrative of the new atheists.

NewI saw the news articles in my feed

I clicked one article based on the title, then saw that he is Baha'i and not Christian. But having clicked one article, I kept seeing more articles on it...I wasn't sure how big the buzz was or if it was just the algorithm showing me more of the same.

Baha'i seems to be tailored to 1+ every other religion out there....at least that's what I remember from my modern cults class ages ago.
