Introduction Religious multiplicity is among the greatest challenges faced by today’s world (Eboo, 2007). “Acts of Faith” is a compelling story that gives inspirations from Eboo Patel, who lived with a vision of unity. The book takes us through his journey in life from childhood up to adulthood, including his founding mission of a youth interfaith movement, which would cultivate harmony and togetherness among the youth. “Acts of Faith” is an excellent piece that is written with a beautiful flow that gives chronicles of confidence and self discovery. The author, Dr. Eboo Patel writes about his journey of faking identity, to portray himself as an Indian, an American, and a Muslim. In the process of trying to forge his identity, he came up with a comprehensive conclusion about the similarities between all faiths. As a result, he developed an interfaith group that was responsible for helping the youth understand, and embrace the commonness of their humanity through their different faiths. Through this movement, the author proves that educating a young nation to ignore religious differences and work for the bosom of everyone is the only way for the world to escape violence and interpersonal conflicts. Themes of the Book The main theme of this book is religious fundamentalism. Through this book, Dr. Eboo, the author, covers three main religions that he experienced. He gives to his readership an account of the similarities and differences between the three religions. He then comes up with a general comment to summarize his findings from his experience with different religions. He also covers the theme of unity among people of different religions and races. The author effectively brings out the theme of unity by working to promote oneness in the society, so that everyone can eliminate religious and racial differences and work for a common interest. He initiates this by supporting an interfaith movement among the youth, which he hopes will bear abundant fruits in future.

He believed that he could not be an Indian, an American, and a Muslim at the same time; he had to serve one master at a time. He grew up outside Chicago, where he had to succumb to a series of constant barrages of racism that exposed him to bullying and mistreatment. He found himself excluded from the rest of the society because of religion and race. During his high school life, he ignored everything concerning his heritage from the Indian and Muslim religions and worked for his educational success. He did this in a bid to be like the White Native Americans who were around him. When he joined college, he learnt about the “liberatory” force of politics and the hypocrisies that existed in America. He realized that anger is not a person’s identity. When Yitzhak Rabin was assassinated, Patel watched how young people
