Atheist Universe – The Thinking Persons Answer to Christian Fundamentalism

Atheist Universe The Thinking Persons Answer to Christian Fundamentalism

Clear, concise, and persuasive, Atheist Universe details exactly why God is unnecessary to explain the universe and life's diversity, organization, and beauty. The author thoroughly rebuts every argument that claims to "prove" God's existence — arguments based on logic, common sense, philosophy, ethics, history and science.

Atheist Universe avoids the esoteric language used by philosophers and presents its scientific evidence in simple lay terms, making it a richly entertaining and easy-to-read introduction to atheism. A comprehensive primer, it addresses all the historical and scientific questions, including: Is there proof that God does not exist? What evidence is there of Jesus' resurrection? Can creation science reconcile scripture with the latest scientific discoveries?

Atheist Universe also answers ethical issues such as: What is the meaning of life without God? It's a spellbinding inquiry that ultimately arrives at a controversial and well-documented conclusion.

User Ratings and Reviews

5 Stars One of the easiet and most enjoyable book on Atheism
For people who are just getting introduced to the idea of atheism,

this book is for you. Oftentimes, people may come across

The God Delusion, End of Faith, God is not Great, and Breaking the Spell and get turned off just by their titles.

Compared to the books mentioned above, this book flows very well like a story telling, very easy to read and understand. Also it may be refreshing for people to read different styles of arguing for and explaining about atheism.

4 Stars Great Book, But a Little Harsh
Let me start by saying that I am an atheist, and have been since I was 16 years old. This book is an excellent source of counter-arguments against Christian Fundamentalism, as the title states. My only problem is that the tone of the text is a little harsh. Most of my friends are Christian, and I've had a few interesting discussions with them as they try to convert me, but I always treat their views with respect, even if they don't return the courtesy. "Atheist Universe" is not so subtle, punching holes in Christian theory with a sledgehammer, instead of surgically dissecting it with a scalpel as I would have preferred. Still, if you need ammunition to debate a right-wing fundamentalist, this is a good place to start.

3 Stars mostly good and fairly easy to read
I have only one gripe with this book. Mills says the only difference between an atheist and an agnostic is guts. That cliched opinion never fails to piss me off. I am an atheist now, but I was agnostic for many years before I was ready to say no to all gods. I had to read and think a lot before making a final decision. There is nothing cowardly or wishy-washy about saying, "I don't know." According to ignorant fanatics, agnostics go to hell, too, so please people, show some respect for deep thinkers who are willing to admit that they just don't know.

5 Stars Wow, A True Eye Opener!!!
My head is still buzzing after turning the last few pages of this book. As a Jew I've found myself questioning the Old Testament for most of my life. I found a link to God The Movie and after watching it eventually was led to this book. David Mills is not only an excellent writer but he provides sound reasoning and scientific documentation about the Old and New Testaments. Not only is this a good book for Atheists to read but is an excellent book for anyone who seeks the truth. During my reading of this book I found myself questioning Judaism and was luckily led to Humanistic Judaism, which allows Jews who wish to continue the culture and history of Judaism without a false God. Thank you David Mills. My life's journey has changed all the better because of you and my friends are still trying to figure out why I'm so excited. Little do they realize it's because I know more than most of them about the entire bible and that wouldn't have been possible without this awesome book that you have written.

5 Stars A basic approach to atheism
This book is fairly good overall, although I would say that it is fairly basic in that it's main goal is to refute Intelligent Design ideas. It is not a highly philosophical book on atheism, but geared towards refuting common lay misconceptions of atheism.
