Dembski worked closely as an advisor with the producers of the Spring 2008 documentary Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed starring Ben Stein. This controversial featurelength documentary film about researchers, professors, and academics who claim to have been marginalized, silenced, or threatened with academic expulsion because of their challenges to some or all parts of Darwin's theory of evolution is one of the top twelve highest grossing documentary's of all time. It has attracted both praise and controversy in its challenge against Darwinism. Like the documentary, How to Be an Intellectually Fulfilled Atheist (Or Not) presents a point-of-view so powerful, that it literally forces a re-examination of issues central to our understanding of life."--BOOK JACKET.

Download or read book If Not God, What? written by Wayne Talbot and published by . This book was released on 2017-02-24 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his book, The Greatest Show on Earth, Richard Dawkins claimed to have proven the case for evolution beyond reasonable doubt. Author, Wayne Talbot, in reply wrote The Dawkins Deficiency, arguing that Dawkins had entirely failed to prove his case. In refuting Dawkins, Talbot did not offer any alternative theory of origins, wanting to deal with the evolution case objectively, from demonstrated science and logic alone.In this book, written as a sequel, the author contends directly with Dawkins' assertion that "evolution allows him to be an intellectually fulfilled atheist". Having rejected the proposition that the overarching theory of evolution has been proven, he presents his case for being an intellectually fulfilled theist. The quest for truth starts with searching back before the beginning of life, before the beginning of our Universe, to the very beginning of material existence itself. Examining what is known about material existence in terms of space, time, energy, and matter, the author reveals that we actually know far less than is generally accepted. Evaluating the options of how our Universe originated, he concludes that a finite material existence could not be eternal, and could not have created itself, uncaused out of nothing: it would have required an intelligent, transcendent, non-material entity to have set the ball rolling.This is not a religious book, the author arguing that far too often, people are unable to separate their perceptions of what God is, or is not, from the fact of the existence of God. There are well documented cases of former atheists, philosophers, scientists, lawyers, and investigative journalists, examining the same evidence and concluding that there must be a higher power. Thus, whilst not claiming to be able to prove, empirically, to anyone, the existence of God, Talbot presents the evidence that others have used to prove the case for themselves, and adds his own reasoning and logic. He leaves it to the reader as to how the evidence is adjudged, and what conclusions the reader may draw.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The new atheists are on the warpath. They come armed with arguments to show that belief in God is absurd and dangerous. In the name of societal progress, they promote purging the world of all religious practice. And they claim that people of faith are mentally ill. Some of the new atheists openly declare their hatred for the Judeo-Christian God. Christian apologists have been quick to respond to the new atheists’ arguments. But there is another dimension to the issue which begs to be addressed--the root causes of atheism. Where do atheists come from? How did such folks as Richard Dawkins, Sam Harris, Daniel Dennett, and Christopher Hitchens become such ardent atheists? If we are to believe them, their flight from faith resulted from a dispassionate review of the evidence. Not enough rational grounds for belief in God, they tell us. But is this the whole story? Could it be that their opposition to religious faith has more to do with passion than reason? What if, in the end, evidence has little to do with how atheists arrive at their anti-faith? That is precisely the claim in this book. Atheism is not at all a consequence of intellectual doubts. These are mere symptoms of the root cause--moral rebellion. For the atheist, the missing ingredient is not evidence but obedience. The psalmist declares, “The fool says in his heart there is no God” (Ps. 14:1), and in the book of Romans, Paul makes it clear that lack of evidence is not the atheist’s problem. The Making of an Atheist confirms these biblical truths and describes the moral and psychological dynamics involved in the abandonment of faith.

Book excerpt: This is a book about science, religion, and the world in between. I was born into a Christian family, but fell out of religion and in love with the scientific method. I had little need of faith, I thought, when science could tell me so much more about the world, and ask so little of me in return. But as I aged into young adulthood, a new chapter of my story began. Did I really know why I believed what I believed? How could I be so certain of my convictions when I hadn't even honestly considered the evidence? This book traces my journey through the furthest reaches of thought, a journey that took me through the realms of psychology, biology, physics, and belief. Could I find a place for faith in the modern world? Or was I right to cast it off as I did?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with professional creationist and anti-creationist organizations in America, and describes how the “conflict between science and religion” is the result of the interaction between these two groups. It retraces their history from the 1960s onwards, and identifies crucial turning points that led to new forms of creationism and anti-creationism. It explains their strategies, labels and arguments as effects of this history and structure. Taking a field theoretical approach, the book avoids problems of prior creationism research, making it possible to identify the mechanisms through which creationism generates new strategies, arguments, and media output. The field model is used as an interpretive tool to make sense of some of the most important creationist and anti-creationist publications and media statements.

Book excerpt: What if religions are neither all true nor all nonsense? The long-running and often boring debate between fundamentalist believers and non-believers is finally moved forward by Alain de Botton’s inspiring new book, which boldly argues that the supernatural claims of religion are entirely false—but that it still has some very important things to teach the secular world. Religion for Atheists suggests that rather than mocking religion, agnostics and atheists should instead steal from it—because the world’s religions are packed with good ideas on how we might live and arrange our societies. Blending deep respect with total impiety, de Botton (a non-believer himself) proposes that we look to religion for insights into how to, among other concerns, build a sense of community, make our relationships last, overcome feelings of envy and inadequacy, inspire travel and reconnect with the natural world. For too long non-believers have faced a stark choice between either swallowing some peculiar doctrines or doing away with a range of consoling and beautiful rituals and ideas. At last, in Religion for Atheists, Alain de Botton has fashioned a far more interesting and truly helpful alternative.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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, A Manual for Creating Atheists offers the first-ever guide not for talking people into faith—but for talking them out of it. Peter Boghossian draws on the tools he has developed and used for more than 20 years as a philosopher and educator to teach how to engage the faithful in conversations that will help them value reason and rationality, cast doubt on their religious beliefs, mistrust their faith, abandon superstition and irrationality, and ultimately embrace reason.
