Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The greatest authors of atheism did more to push me toward belief in God than any Christian apologist writer." --Timothy Morgan. After a decade of major disappointments, Timothy Morgan was ready to reject God. Atheism offered an escape--an opportunity to dismiss God permanently. But as Morgan delved into the thinking of great atheists past and present, he was stunned. In book after book, he found their reasons for rejecting God to be intellectually unfulfilling. In Thank God for Atheists he candidly shares his journey by letting atheists speak for themselves, examining their logic to see whether it holds up or not. Along the way, deals with these key questions: What are the key elements of the atheist worldview? Who are the leading modern-day atheists, and what are they saying? How can you effectively respond to atheism? You'll find this a personal and thoughtful book on why the evidence for God is much more compelling than the evidence against Him.

Book excerpt: Warning! This book may be dangerous to your faith! This book is not for the faint of heart. This is not a work of Christian apologetics designed to arm the believer with biblical and theological strategies to counter humanist arguments. It is not designed to buttress your Christian faith against attacks from atheists and other unbelievers. On the contrary, this book takes the claims of atheists seriously. It listens to the arguments of atheists against the existence of God, and it comes to the conclusion that in a number of areas, atheists are right and Christians are wrong. For that reason it may actually undermine your faith. So please, if you are a Christian, think twice before you read it. Drawing upon the writings of the 21st century New Atheists, as well as previous generations of atheists, the author explores the most convincing arguments that atheists make against theism. His conclusion is that the New Atheists have important things to say to today's Christians. He goes so far as to say that atheists are God's prophets to the Church today, sent by God to purify the Church by proclaiming hard truths that Christians are not willing to hear. He make a case for nonbelieving prophets in the Bible, and then explains how atheists are playing the prophetic role today by echoing the same themes as the biblical prophets. Old Testament prophets regularly confronted the religious authorities and orthodoxies of their day, often paying for "speaking truth to power" with imprisonment and death. Likewise atheists are among the most mistrusted people today. Davis suggests that instead of instinctively resorting to confrontational, evangelistic or apologetic approaches, Christians should listen to atheists with open minds and hearts. They might just hear a word from God! He examines the New Atheists' arguments against God, with particular emphasis on the atheists' strongest argument: the age-old problem of evil and suffering. Along the way he explores the issues of violence ordered by God in the Bible, scriptural historicity, biblical literalism, creationism, hell, prayer, miracles, resurrection, and the problematic doctrine of substitutionary atonement. This book examines the weaknesses and vulnerabilities of Christianity as exposed by the New Atheism. It also explores the responses of Christian apologists who oppose the New Atheism. In the last section of the book, Davis "reimagines" Christianity in the light of reason, evidence, science and historical criticism. Marshall Davis tests the Christian faith from the viewpoint of skepticism to see if it is worthy of our devotion. His conclusion is that it is, but that the New Atheism can help put Christianity on a stronger footing ... if Christians are willing to listen to God speaking through the New Atheists. "This book transcends the typical atheist-theist debate over the existence of God as a supernatural being. He takes a number of pro-science, pro-future insights from religious skeptics and offers a fresh interpretation of Christianity in light of the Evidential Reformation now emerging throughout the world. I highly recommend it." ~ Rev. Michael Dowd, author of "Thank God for Evolution" and host of "The Future Is Calling Us to Greatness"

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Michele Ketzmerick grew up feeling relieved she was a Catholic who belonged to the "best" religion--the one true faith that purportedly offered the only real way to heaven. As a sometimes rebellious teenager, Michele never strayed far from the dark confessional, knowing she would always be forgiven, no matter how grave the transgression. Yet, after four decades of proud Catholicism, a crisis prompted Michele to embark on an enlightening quest into her faith and beliefs in which she soon discovered more about herself than she ever imagined. When Michele found herself facing the possibility of a life-threatening medical diagnosis, she suddenly realized that, for someone with a supposedly sturdy faith, she was terrified of death, of heaven, and of an uncertain afterlife. As she reveals how she began to question her faith and the tenets of her religion, Michele details how she unexpectedly learned more about peace, compassion, and morality from nonbelievers than she had during her entire life as a theist--and subsequently experienced the consequences of maneuvering in territory once forbidden for people of faith. I Married an Atheist--thank God shares the compelling story of one woman's transition from long-held Catholicism to the courageous realization that it is okay to live a cherished, respectful, and loving life without religion.

Book excerpt: -Such a weighty tome had working titles including 'The God' , 'Explosions happen all the time anyway' , 'Thank God for Deicide' , and , 'Thank Allah for the Deification process'. This book is renowned in the closest (in mass) 72 Galaxies as for being Top Class, Elite. – The style is, of course, similar to myself earlier, but our Autho(u)r is more EXPerienced, have you been? What, Poisoned? Well...well, Yeah! Several times during the creation of this Bonanza. It is mathmatically dirty, a statistical anomoly in many areas, a rare significant event, considered 'lively' by a nearby neighbouring galaxy. And? it has been likened, by its autho(u)r, recently, to being a burden, a millstone, and the vicious corridors of where our man rests have even witnessed several vague Tolkienesque references, Rings etc and Fingers, a combination of which is that little bit too much to adapt given the reality of the process of transforming the mental into the physical, to wrestle the thought, an abstract nothing to anything else, into being. Above all, this book is difficult to read if you are, like too many, Roger Francis's Enemy. You don't understand and don't even try, so dont try now. Also, don't forget your Potholders.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Thank god For Eve" is unlike any book you have ever read. It is a once-in-a-generation hammer blow against religion and faith and will stand forever as the nonbeliever's bible and comprehensive destruction of religion's claims. Its strong call to maximize our humanity is as full of truth, information and morality as the monotheistic holy books are filled with myths, misconceptions and immorality. No other book blends science and history with reason, penetrating analysis and shrewd satire in such a uniquely informative and entertaining faith-destroying package. Blending current information with new insights and analysis, it describes how and why religions form and persist, proves the danger of unjustified belief, and clearly shows just how much better the world will be after everyone stops believing in fairy tales. If you think truth, reason and critical thinking matter, you absolutely need to read this book.

Book excerpt: This book is also available under its original title "Thank God For Atheists." Apparently, you CAN judge a book by its cover, so I'm offering this version as well... Everyone's addicted to their devices. It's called the dopamine response. We're so interested in what's coming next, we don't stop to appreciate what's already here. Somewhere along the way, everything's gotten watered down and shallow. In our rush for the quick fix, we're losing our ability to think for ourselves. No matter how idealistically, I'll suggest how we might break the dreary chain of causality that's created our willing imprisonment. Despite the media's insistence that we focus on the mundane, I'll explain how we can focus again on those things that ought to matter. Belief is important. Religion is our way of reconciling ourselves to dying, but it shouldn't become so powerful that it prevents us from living. If we notice an ant crawling around on the lip of a drinking glass caught in an unending circle, we're amused at first. Hours later, when the ant continues on its relentless trek around the glass's edge, we start to get mildly annoyed. We're dismayed by how this apparently stupid creature hasn't yet figured out that it's been going around in this little circle. In fact, if we don't intercede in some way, it will likely go on like this for the rest of its life. What most of us fail to take into account, is the fact that one of the ways scout ants blaze new paths, is by laying down a pheromone trail that will aid it in returning to the colony later. If the trip was successful in yielding up new food sources, then that same trail can be followed by other members of the colony at some future point. Since there have been ants, that's a pretty good way to run a business. It's a safe bet that most of the world's ants won't end up on the edge of a glass somewhere, since such items are relatively rare in nature. I wonder what some dispassionate observer would think if they were to look at some of the things we believe. Would they laugh at our plight, or would they be appalled by our short-sightedness? Sometimes it's best to recognize the futility of going around in this big, unending circle. Might it be possible that it's all been designed that way all along?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Debunking myths behind what is known collectively as the new cosmology—a grand, overlapping set of narratives that claim to bring science and spirituality together—Lisa H. Sideris offers a searing critique of the movement’s anthropocentric vision of the world. In Consecrating Science, Sideris argues that instead of cultivating an ethic of respect for nature, the new cosmology encourages human arrogance, uncritical reverence for science, and indifference to nonhuman life. Exploring moral sensibilities rooted in experience of the natural world, Sideris shows how a sense of wonder can foster environmental attitudes that will protect our planet from ecological collapse for years to come.

Book excerpt: I was born and raised in a Christian church in the deep southern state of Mississippi. The "Bible Belt" is a region of the United States that is know for it historic wealth of religion and faith. I answered a call to ministry at the early age of 20 during my junior year in college. Never was I a bad kid growing up, but I had some peculiar ways about myself which created a bit of concern for myself and probably as well for others. Sexually immoral thoughts and actions found their way into my life while as early as elementary school. Although I did not know what pornography was at the time, my gift of visual memory caused me to go to school and draw a vivid image of a man and woman having sex when I was in the third grade. The South is stricken with a condescending cloak of religion which often leaves families damaged mentally, emotionally, and worst of all spiritually. My teenage years ushered in an expression of sexuality which manifested itself in some of the most inappropriate ways possible. This became overshadowed by my athletic ability, faithful attendance to church, and being active in various programs in ministries. This created a charming, intellectual, and polite young man who publicly acknowledged a calling to preach but contained many unaddressed issues deep within. After years of living to the expectations of my surroundings, I was a three-sport athlete, minister, and soldier with poetic and creative gifts but still missing something inside. The sexual spirits that were never addressed in my life surprisingly drew me to the narcissistic and autogynephilic curiosity of what I would look like in a dress. This book highlights how a life of neglected internal issues created an atheist, lesbian transgender woman who was eventually touched by a God that she did not believe in anymore. That transwoman took a step of faith from a voice she hadn't heard in five years and didn't believe anymore. One step of faith turned her back into the man that God created him to be but he came back with a revelation of why his entire life was messed up from the beginning. Let's have a talk about this thing called Religion.....

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Atheists may be among the fastest growing &“religious&” demographics in the world, but they are also perhaps the most misunderstood. To begin, atheists have no identifying marks, no defining habits, no obvious symbols, for all that unites them, essentially, is an absence of belief. As a result, many religious believers may not even realize they know atheists, whether as neighbors, friends, or coworkers. In addition, most major religions warn against the faithless and preach distrust of nonbelievers. This creates not only ignorance about what it's like to be an atheist, but also fear about the very idea of atheism. Organized like an encyclopedia, this book aims to rectify this widespread distrust and suspicion with basic understanding. Each entry, written in clear, concise language, covers a specific topic or question related to being an atheist, making this the perfect primer for anyone curious about or interested in atheism—whether to learn more about why someone might become an atheist, how someone creates meaning and purpose as an atheist, and what life is like as an atheist.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book seeks to explore the complex modes of interface between religion, atheism, and the Goddess in multicultural contexts. While atheism has often been seen as an interrogation of and a battle against God, the gender dimension of this discourse has not been sufficiently negotiated. Is the fight against God also a fight against the Goddess? Or is there something common between the ideological thrust of the battle against God the “Father” in atheism and the interrogation of the Divine Father in thealogy? Can the Goddess be seen as an entity radically different from the imperious transcendental that the atheists find embodied in God the Father? Or, can the Goddess be seen as “transcendental” as well as immanent, and hence subjected to the same atheist denial of transcendence to which God is subjected in non-theistic or anti-theistic arguments? With this volume, Anway Mukhopadhyay embarks on a difficult project of epistemologically, ideologically and even politically renegotiating and reorienting some of the fundamental issues involved in the discussions of and debates over atheism.

Book excerpt: Faith and Spirituality in Masters of World Cinema, Volume II continues the work presented in the first volume of this title, published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing in 2008. It provides informed yet accessible articles that will give readers an introduction to masters of world cinema whose works explore the themes of human spirituality and religious faith. Volume II contains essays dealing with canonical directors notably absent from the first entry of the series (such as Godard and Kurosawa) while also including examinations of contemporary auteurs who are still actively working (for example, Andersson, and von Trier). While retaining a truly international emphasis—it includes essays about directors from the United States, Canada, Iran, Sweden, India, Denmark, Italy, Mexico, Australia, and Japan—Volume II also acts as an important contribution to canon formation, illustrating the complexity and variety in the films of those who are truly the masters of world cinema. Built solidly around close, formal readings of selective films, the essays in Volume II also demonstrate familiarity with film history and bring insight from such varied disciplines as New Testament Studies, Clinical Psychology, Art History, and Medieval History. It also seeks to broaden the understanding of ‘faith’ and ‘spirituality,’ examining how the meaning of such terms changes as the cultures that produce the art that defines them continues to evolve.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you ever wonder why athletes always seem to thank God, first and foremost, in post-game interviews? Or why they point to the heavens following a home run or a touchdown? This book takes a look at the relationship between top athletes and religiosity (or spirituality) in a number of different ways. It aims to address the issues of when sport and religion began to merge, whether professional athletes are, in fact, more religious than the rest of the population, how a spiritual mindset might (or might not) benefit athletes, and why wearing the same underwear during a winning streak has anything to do with religious faith. These questions are confronted by looking at psychological and sociological studies, conducting original research, and examining exclusive interviews with professional athletes. So what does a player like Jerry Stackhouse think of the culture of faith in the NBA? How does an agnostic athlete view the religiously themed celebrations in the NFL? Are top performers in other walks of life just as religious as top athletes? The results might surprise you.
