Book Reviews of Atheist Manifesto: The Case Against Christianity, Judaism, and Islam
Book Review: so so
Summary: 3 Stars
Has some good stuff about Pauls hysteria and how the cult of jesus got started and how it became an official religion.THE GOD DELUSION was much better.I may go back and re read some parts of the atheist manifesto but over all Its only worth one read.
Summary of Atheist Manifesto: The Case Against Christianity, Judaism, and Islam
This tightly argued, hugely controversial work convincingly demonstrates how the world's three major monotheistic religions-Christianity, Judaism, and Islam-have attempted to suppress knowledge, science, pleasure, and desire, often condemning nonbelievers to death. If Nietzsche proclaimed the "Death of God," Onfray starts from the premise that not only is God still very much alive, but increasingly controlled by fundamentalists who pose a danger to the human race. Documenting the ravages from religious intolerance over the centuries, the author makes a strong case against the three religions for demanding faith, belief, obedience and submission, and for extolling the "next life" at the expense of the here and now. Not since Nietzsche has a work so groundbreaking and explosive appeared to question the role of the world's dominant religions.General Books
