Prof Stephen Prothero on the human problem and religion

This is a great series by Prof. Stephen Prothero about 8 world religions, in which he approaches an analysis of each religion from the point of view of the human problem ... in other words, what is the problem that Buddhism is trying to answer? Basically, how to deal with suffering.

Prothero -- God is not one  (these are the Youtube videos: approximately 20 to 25 minutes each)

Here is the information about his book:

God Is Not One: The Eight Rival Religions That Run the World
