An Anthology of Atheism and Rationalism

by Gordon Stein

Book Overview

This anthology fills a conspicuous gap in the discussion of religion and theism. The issues that theology addresses, the meaning of life, the existence of God, the truth of the Bible, the possibility of life after death, are so important to people that they ought to examine both sides of these fundamental questions. The atheist and rationalist writings collected here are virtually impossible to obtain anywhere else, even in large university library...

Customer Reviews

Gordon Stein hits you from all angles

Mr. Gordon has drawn from every direction of rational and atheistic thought. To most the reading may appear dry, but it will always challenge your belief system. I found the book to be based upon fact and rational thought and as close to the emperical truth as one can come. Anyone interested in understanding rational thought should read this book.

Solid Presentation of Great Works

Dr. Stein has assembled a fine collection of atheist and rationalist essays. For the most part they are unique and adequately prefaced. This collection provides a very complete anthology of rare and well known essays from famous authors such as Bertrand Russell and Voltaire, as well as lesser known authors.
