Title: The God Delusion Pdf

With rigor and wit, Dawkins examines God in all his forms, from the sex-obsessed tyrant of the Old Testament to the more benign (but still illogical) Celestial Watchmaker favored by some Enlightenment thinkers. He eviscerates the major arguments for religion and demonstrates the supreme improbability of a supreme being. He shows how religion fuels war, foments bigotry, and abuses children, buttressing his points with historical and contemporary evidence. The God Delusion makes a compelling case that belief in God is not just wrong but potentially deadly. It also offers exhilarating insight into the advantages of atheism to the individual and society, not the least of which is a clearer, truer appreciation of the universe's wonders than any faith could ever muster.
Enjoyed this one This was an interesting book. I've read Hitchens, Barker, Harris and Ebling's for the humor. I don't understand how people can still fall for supernatural nonsense. In the age of scientific information, ingnorance is a choice. I'd rather read scores of books and come away with a handful of solid reasonable answers to life's questions than read the bible and think I know it all. I don't think we'll ever have all the "answers" but with input books like this one provides, we get enough. I don't need to know everything. I don't need a purpose. I don't need to know why I'm here. I just am. The whole punishment / reward afterlife thing is ridiculous, it wreeks of being a product of man's imagination, and who really wants to spend eternity with the god character depicted in the bible anyway? Someone said in a review for another book that people don't read widely or think deeply so religion and blind faith will be the track that most people will stay on. Unfortunate, but probably true. Well put at any rate. I always thought religion is the product of lazy minds. Anyway, I recommend this book to anyone " on the fence " concerning religion. If books like this don't, at the very least, shake your faith, then do us all a favor and check into the closest mental facility. Good day.Gets you thinking This book came at an important time in my life when I was seriously wondering what it was I believed in. I grew up in a Christian household and was never super active in my church but also never questioned what it was I was raised to believe; until, that is, I read this book. Personally I think that Richard Dawkins has a bit of a chip on his shoulder, but you can't deny his intelligence and the work he has put into this book. I would highly recommend this bookA classic best read by agnostics or atheists or someone with an open mind. This is a heavy book and is best for agnostics or atheists. You should be open-minded to read this book. Author is very particular about his opinions and point of view. Can be enjoyable, but it takes time to go through this book.
