In simple, yet bold and vigorous language the author enunciates the basic principle of the Philosophy of Atheism. Packed with info on how religion has delayed life-saving progress in medicine and technology that we rely upon today. Gives great reasons why religion keeps people fearful and encourages positive atheism, a life where we focus not on appeasing the wrathful god of our imaginations, but on helping human beings. This book is humanist in nature. Joseph Lewis was an American freethinker, and atheist. He writes: "If Atheism writes upon the blackboard of the Universe a question mark, it writes it for the purpose of stating that there is a question yet to be answered. Is it not better to place a question mark upon a problem while seeking an answer than to put the label "God" there and consider the matter solved?
