Persistence of Belief: A Rational Inquiry into God
Why do we believe in God? Is belief inherited, emotional, cultural—or something deeper? In this provocative and empathetic exploration, Rock Laurel invites readers to examine the foundations of faith, the psychology of belief, and the social forces that shape religious conviction.
Drawing on decades of research and personal experience, this book challenges assumptions without condemnation, offering a mirror rather than a verdict. Whether you’re a believer, a skeptic, or somewhere in between, Persistence of Belief will spark introspection, dialogue, and a deeper understanding of why belief endures.
Courageous, clear, and compassionate—this is a book for anyone willing to ask the hardest questions.

Growing Up in Rhode Island is a heartfelt glimpse into the childhood of a boy coming of age in a small New England town. Told as autobiographical fiction, this short story captures the trials, triumphs, and unique antics of youth in the 1950s. With a level-headed perspective and a touch of humor, the narrative explores independence, family dynamics, and the cultural flavor of Rhode Island—from its distinctive vocabulary to its unforgettable food. A nostalgic and engaging read, it offers a real-life portrait of growing up in a time and place unlike any other.
