Discover magazine recently called Richard Dawkins "Darwin's Rottweiler" for his fierce and effective defense of evolution. Prospect magazine voted him among the top three public intellectuals in the world (along with Umberto Eco and Noam Chomsky). Now Dawkins turns his considerable intellect on religion, denouncing its faulty logic and the suffering it causes.

Should we believe in God? Do we need God in order to explain the existence of the universe? Do we need God in order to be good? In 12 chapters that address some of the most profound questions human beings confront, Dawkins marshals science, philosophy and comparative religion to interrogate the hypocrisies of all the religious systems and explain to listeners of all ages how life emerged without a Creator, how evolution works and how our world came into being.

What is human consciousness, and how is it possible? This question fascinates thinking people from poets and painters to physicists, psychologists, and philosophers. From Bacteria to Bach and Back is Daniel C. Dennett's brilliant answer, extending perspectives from his earlier work in surprising directions, exploring the deep interactions of evolution, brains, and human culture.

Joseph McCabe was one of the most learned and prolific of atheist writers. In his earlier life, he had been a Catholic priest, fluent in several languages, who taught philosophy and history in ecclesiastical colleges. He wrote over two hundred books and pamphlets and also translated a number of significant texts.

Nietzsche nació en 1844 en la casa parroquial de Röcken (Alemania). Su padre, sus abuelos y sus bisabuelos eran pastores protestantes. Su padre falleció cuando el pequeño Friedrich tenía cuatro años de edad. Era un niño ensimismado y de extrema rectitud de conciencia, al punto que sus amigos lo apodaban "Pequeño Pastor". Al ingresar a la escuela secundaria, estudió piano y comenzó a componer pequeñas obras musicales.

In 12 fiercely funny, mind-expanding chapters, Dawkins explains how the natural world arose without a designer - the improbability and beauty of the "bottom-up programming" that engineers an embryo or a flock of starlings - and challenges head-on some of the most basic assumptions made by the world’s religions: Do you believe in God? Which one? Is the Bible a "Good Book"? Is adhering to a religion necessary, or even likely, to make people good to one another? Outgrowing God is a concise, provocative guide to thinking for yourself.

Nothing is new or original in Christianity. That is the important thesis demonstrated in Christianity Before Christ. The least important features, as well as the most important components, were all well developed in cultures that flourished before the time that Christ is alleged to have walked the parched paths of Roman Palestine.

Why are we here? What's the point of existence? On the "big questions" of meaning and purpose, Western thought has been dominated by the dichotomy of traditional religion and secular atheism. In this pioneering work, Philip Goff argues that it is time to move on from both God and atheism. Through an exploration of contemporary cosmology and cutting-edge philosophical research on consciousness, Goff argues for cosmic purpose: the idea that the universe is directed towards certain goals, such as the emergence of life.

In the tradition of Bertrand Russell's Why I Am Not a Christian and Sam Harris' recent best-seller, The End of Faith, Christopher Hitchens makes the ultimate case against religion. With a close and erudite reading of the major religious texts, he 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.

Popular radio host and podcaster Justin Brierley has been creating and facilitating constructive conversations about faith for more than two decades. He is an expert in Christian apologetics and has had a ringside seat as believers and nonbelievers alike have debated Christianity. Surprisingly, Justin has come out on the other side of these debates more convinced than ever of the truth of Jesus’ claims―and the power of good conversations. With this book, you get to watch Justin as he engages with the most unlikely of conversation partners on the subject of faith.

For thousands of years, the faithful have honed proselytizing strategies and talked people into believing the truth of one holy book or another. Indeed, the faithful often view converting others as an obligation of their faith - and are trained from an early age to spread their unique brand of religion. The result is a world broken in large part by unquestioned faith. As an urgently needed counter to this tried-and-true tradition of religious evangelism, this audiobook offers the first-ever guide not for talking people into faith - but for talking them out of it.

Peut-on encore croire en Dieu ? Une introduction à l'athéisme moderne. Pendant longtemps, Dieu a été l'explication à tous les phénomènes étranges qui nous entourent. Après tout, comment expliquer les merveilles et la complexité de la nature sans imagine un créateur pour tout orchestrer ? Mais plus la science progresse, plus elle apporte de réponses tangibles à ces phénomènes autrefois attribués à Dieu. Ce sont la théorie de l'évolution et la génétique qui ont en tout cas convaincu Richard Dawkins, quand il avait 15 ans, d'arrêter de croire en Dieu.

يؤمن كثير من البشر بوجود الله، إلا أن البعض لا يؤمن بوجوده. فإن كنت تعتقد أن الأمر يعود بالأساس لدرجة تدين الأب والأم، فربما تكون مخطئاً. ما السبب إذن وراء الاختلاف في درجات إيمان البشر؟ وبماذا يؤمن من لا يؤمن؟

Drew Avery guides you to a “basecamp” of sensible, logical, rational faith. A place where you—the agnostic, the “none,” the “spiritual”—can leave vagueness behind. A place where you may find new purpose and the needed strength to live a better life and to help make a better world.

طالما أن الله يكتب أعمالنا ، فلماذا يحاسنا عليها ؟

ويسرد فليو عبر هذا الكتاب رحلته من الإلحاد المتزمت إلى الإيمان.

Grogan is a thought-provoking exploration into the historical claims of miraculous events that were believed to have shaped the early Christian faith.

How does one go from an atheist to a drug dealer, to a Rabbi? Growing up in New York City, Ira was an angry, disillusioned Orthodox Jew living with the hurt and shame of his parents' divorce. As a young adult, he wanted nothing to do with God or religion. Trying to find himself and his path in life, Ira pushed back on his father's beliefs and dropped out of college in Wisconsin and headed to Colorado where he earned a living in the "pharmaceutical business."

يتجه كتاب "العقل المؤمن/ العقل الملحد" للكاتب عبد الله الغذامي نحو العقل في محاولة لقراءة حجج الملحدين ومقابلتهم بالمؤمنين من أوساطهم نفسها، فيتساءل أحد الفريقين عن الكون والوجود وما بعد الموت مجيبًا عنها، في حين يرفض الفريق الثاني اتكاءً على الحتمية العلمية كما في نظرية هوكينغ من أن الطبيعة خلقت نفسَها، متجاهلًا رؤيته هو في أنها لا تملك عقلًا؛ فكيف لقوة غير عاقلة أن تخلق قوة عاقلة!
