The book 'In Search of Jesus of Nazareth and His Original Teaching chronicles the research and analysis leading to the formulation of his understanding of the Historical Jesus and His Spiritual Teaching. His aim for the new book is not to ask anyone to accept his conclusions, but rather to use the book as a guide in clarifying their own faith and belief.
Paul A. Weekes further believes that organized religion, according to sociologist G. Lenski, is "a shared system of associated beliefs and practices, which are articulated around the nature of the forces that shape the destiny of human beings." From this, he interprets that any religion that promotes peace, harmony, charity, morality, ethical behavior, compassion, and the betterment of humanity is to be condoned and supported. However, religions/sects that preach violence and prejudice or practice discrimination must be condemned/reformed. Ideally, through education and enlightenment rather than by armed conflict.
