Now Dawkins turns his considerable intellect on religion, denouncing its faulty logic and the suffering it causes.He critiques 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. In so doing, he makes a compelling case that belief in God is not just irrational, but potentially deadly.Dawkins has fashioned an impassioned, rigorous rebuttal to religion, to be embraced by anyone who sputters at the inconsistencies and cruelties that riddle the Bible, bristles at the inanity of "intelligent design," or agonizes over fundamentalism in the Middle East-or Middle America. 538 $a Mode of access: World Wide Web. 650 0 $a Atheism. 650 0 $a Religion $v Controversial literature. 700 1 $a Ward, Lalla. 710 2 $a hoopla digital. 856 40 $u https://www.hoopladigital.com/title/10755075 $z Instantly available on hoopla. 856 42 $z Cover image $u https://d2snwnmzyr8jue.cloudfront.net/ttm_9781400123780_180.jpeg 941 $a 2 952 $l GFPE771 $d 20171128013430.0 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20161103011459.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=182C2C34A18B11E6AED112AEDAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
