Bob Maguire ’72 embodies the voice of God in this humorous musing of what the man upstairs would think about humanity’s religious beliefs and practices. A book for believers and nonbelievers, If I Were God: How I Would Have Done It (Self-published) explores religious studies, sociology, science, and more. Maguire challenges readers to approach religion from an open-minded perspective to consider all possibilities, as it’s impossible to know the ultimate truth. His critique explores many religious teachings and practices including Christianity, Islam, and Hinduism.
