Summary:
Whether you’re a lifelong believer, a devout atheist, or somebody who remains uncertain about the part of religion in our lives, this insightful manifesto will engage you with its provocative ideas.
With a close and studied reading from the main religious texts, Christopher Hitchens documents the ways in which religion is a man-made wish, a cause of dangerous sexual repression, and a distortion of our origins in the cosmos. With eloquent clearness, Hitchens structures the discussion for a far more secular existence based on science and reason, in which hell is changed with the Hubble Telescope’s amazing view of the world, and Moses as well as the burning bush cave in to the beauty and symmetry from the double helix.
In the tradition of Bertrand Russell’s Why I Am Not a Christian and Sam Harris’s The End of Faith, Christopher Hitchens makes the ultimate case against religion.
