Happily Godless - Humanism for a Better World by Tony Akkermans
This book exposes the folly of a 21st century world still in thrall to the primitive ideas of bronze age desert tribes. People no longer believe in Zeus or Thor, why cling to an equally mythical Christian God or Allah? Humanism is a more fitting life-stance for modern humanity. It replaces superstition with science based on research and evidence. And you can be 'good without god'. The prisons aren't full of atheists. 'Happily Godless' pleads for a slowing in population growth; a better deal for women who have suffered badly under religion; animals too have had a rotten deal; the book asserts that prayer is useless and that belief in the paranormal is a waste of time. It treats many other life issues, abortion, homosexuality; euthanasia; free will; the afterlife; multiculturalism etc., sometimes hard hitting, sometimes humorously but always clearly argued| SKU | Unavailable |
