About the Book
Atheism as a fulfilling and compassionate philosophy! A very accessible read, tackling difficult concepts with a straight-forward and uncomplicated narrative.
Polls show that between 10-15% of Americans are not religious. Atheists are rarely considered part of mainstream America, yet most of these individuals are intelligent, compassionate, and good citizens. The Confessions of a Moral Atheist is a highly readable tour of science, history, philosophy, religion, and more, written in a manner accessible for the casual reader. The book discusses many deep-seated philosophical issues from a “naturalist” point of view, including the origin of life, morality, consciousness, freewill, and the entire path of human history. Confessions paints a unified, coherent, and satisfying view of our world from a naturalist’s perspective.
