Atheism Destroys focuses on how godlessness destroys our most treasured institutions and values: free speech, family, relationships, and even courage. Lurie shows how godlessness has been the primary destroyer of many of our liberties. He also shows how godlessness is the root of and primary force enabling drug cartels, the mafia, sex trafficking, and psychopaths. With insight, stories, and humor, Lurie treats atheism as a destructive force in and of itself—one that we dare not tread lightly and which we must resist like any other enemy at the gate.

It is often said that the strongest case to be made against theism is "the problem of evil." In this brief, but thorough, study, Warren deftly demonstrates that the existence of both God and evil poses no logical contradiction.

Nearly a third of Americans under the age of thirty have no religious affiliation, the highest in any recorded generation. In this growing segment of "nones" are many young Atheists who have faced prejudice in their high schools and communities for standing up for their constitutional right of freedom from religion. You'll hear some of their stories in this book, whether they're protesting their school's public prayers at football games and graduations or sitting out the "under God" portion of the Pledge of Allegiance.

Religion was once the primary way to understand human behavior. This was certainly true when the book Alcoholics Anonymous was written in 1939. But, we have learned much over the past 80 years. Common Sense Recovery began as the journal of a long-standing member of AA, during a time in his life when he was struggling to reconcile the religious language of Alcoholics Anonymous with his new-found atheism and scientific understanding of addiction and the recovery process.

Liar:Liar pants on fire. There are so many verses in the Bible which are not preached from the pulpit, and no wonder. If they were, churches would have more empty pews than they do now. This is an honest, and in parts, comical adaptation of some of the chapters which are deliberately missed out in sermons. I have not written this book to change the readers mind, nor to invoke hatred or violence. Nor do I dislike any religious believer, or worshiper, who believe in any of the different Gods in the World. I wrote it in the futile hope of someday understanding the conflicting viewpoints. I ...

Who does NOT seek love, or more abundant love — that glue that binds us to others, that makes us matter to each other, filling, albeit incompletely, the hole where loneliness otherwise abides? Who does NOT accept, albeit with dread, the inescapable truth that they will die one day, that their trip will be over, that their personal horizon will be breached? Who does NOT wonder, amid the hubbub of daily chores, what it all means, what is the big picture beyond local mundanity? Religion works for some. Others—the more scientifically informed among us—recognize the shortcomings of ...

Incorporating his own thoughts along with those of noted academics, philosophers, and theologians, Loftus is able to properly define "miracle" and then show why there's no reason to believe such a thing even exists.

To satisfy a public that longs for a savior, Vidal’s eponymous hero of Kalki, born and bred in America’s Midwest, establishes himself in Nepal, puts out the word that he is the last incarnation of the god Vishnu, and predicts an imminent apocalypse meant to cleanse the planet.

Inside, you'll discover three controversial discussions: "Religion Is a Dangerous Addiction", "Is Religion a Genetic Flaw?", and "Coming Out of the Atheist Closet".

The Christian faith has been vigorously defended with a variety of philosophical, historical, and theological arguments, but many of the arguments that worked in an earlier age no longer resonate in today's educated West. Where has apologetics gone wrong? What is the best response to the growing challenge presented by scientific discovery and naturalistic thought?

Women have made great strides toward equal rights over the past 100 years, especially in the West. But when considering the ongoing fight over reproductive rights and equal pay - and the prevalence of sexual violence and domestic abuse - it is clear that a significant gap still exists. With scripture often cited as justification for the marginalization of women, it is time to acknowledge that one of the final barriers to full equality for women is religion.

In it, Kevin takes you through his own experiences, raised Catholic, once devout Christian, then closeted atheist, now openly a nonbeliever and active in the atheist community. Through this journey, listeners will gain an understanding of what it's like for someone to abandon faith in the supernatural and gravitate toward evidence-based reasoning, ultimately facing the taboo of being a nonbeliever.

From Orthodox Jewish child in postwar America to mild-mannered mathematician in academia to legendary atheist activist in the heart of today's Republican South, Herb Silverman has always been outside the mainstream of American culture, politics, and religion. From this unique vantage point, he writes about the most pressing issues of our day, including those related to war, peace, patriotism, race, gender, and church-state separation.
