Richard Dawkins is Oct 2006. If you enjoy this novel, it is available for buy as a paperback from Barnes & Noble or Indigo, as an ebook on the Amazon Kindle store, or as an audiobook on Audible.
The most well-known scientist in the world and an outspoken atheist claims that religion has caused great damage to society, from the Crusades to 9/11, and that believing in God is illogical.
From the sex-obsessed dictator of the Old Testament to the more benign (but still irrational) Celestial Watchmaker preferred by certain Enlightenment philosophers, Dawkins explores God in all his incarnations with precision and humor. He dismantles the main justifications for religion and shows how unlikely it is that there might be a superior entity. Using both historical and modern data, he demonstrates how religion promotes hatred, fosters conflict, and mistreats children.
The God Delusion presents a strong argument for why believing in God is not just incorrect but also perhaps fatal. It also provides thrilling insight into the benefits of atheism for both individuals and society as a whole, not the least of which is a deeper and better understanding of the glories of the cosmos than any religion could ever hope to achieve.
