The End of Faith: Religion, Terror, and the Future of Reason
Sam Harris
W. W. Norton
, 2005
A Must Read Book For Those Who Stand-Up For Religion (Islam in particular)
This book is a must read. I encourage everybody who apologizes for every religion (especially Islam) to read Sam Harris. I found Chapter 3 to be most entertaining; it's called, "The problem with Islam." Harris provides a long list of quotes from the "religion of ...

A Giant Fight
How's this for a story: Imagine a giant fight. A giant pillow fight. A giant is battering you back and forth with a giant pillow. Feathers are flying. You can't exactly see. You know you're not really hurt, but he's knocking you half off your feet, you're confused. ...

Gets You in the Flow!
I've been a fan of Kelly Howell for many years and highly recommend her Brain Sync CDs. The Secret Universal Mind Meditation is based on the work of U.S. Andersen. His book, "Three Magic Words" is also a must read. The two combined are very powerful tools. Howell's ...

I, too, also implore those 40%...

There Is a God: How the World's Most Notorious Atheist Changed His Mind
Antony Flew
,
Roy Abraham Varghese
HarperOne
, 2007
The simplest answer to life's oldest question
I remember seeing the headlines in late 2004/early 2005. One of the world's most famous atheists, Anthony Flew, had declared his belief in "a God". This was a major coup for the theists in the atheism versus theism battle. So, when I saw the book "There Is No A God" ...

The God Delusion
Richard Dawkins
Mariner Books
, 2008
very interesting
Very interesting book. I was told every day that the Bible was FACT, raised in a Catholic school, etc. It is good to see the other side of the argument. Freed my mind! I hope this doesn't send me straight to hell! God, if you don't want me to publish this give ...
God is No Delusion: A Refutation of Richard Dawkins
Thomas Crean
Ignatius Pr
, 2007
Refuted indeed
Others here have ably provided detailed reviews, so I'll just add my voice to the chorus by more generally recommending this book. Thomas Crean's tone here is as magnanimous as Richard Dawkins' is pusillanimous. This contrast alone is a sight to behold, and is ...
God: The Failed Hypothesis: How Science Shows That God Does Not Exist
Victor J. Stenger
Prometheus Books
, 2007
Breaking Out of the Ghetto
Coming this late to the party, I better have something non-redundant to contribute. Actually, I read back through the hundred-and-some reviews and appended commentaries (Whew!), and on that basis, I recommend three critics of Stenger's book for those of you who don't ...
God's Universe
Owen Gingerich
Belknap Press
, 2006
Reasoned, honest discussion
Christian conversations regarding the compatibility of science and religion must address two questions: What Biblical hermeneutic should be used for Genesis 1 and does current scientific theory preclude theistic belief? In "God's Universe," Gingerich addresses the only ...

If you are interested in reading lots of inspiring stories about people who have discovered spiritual realities concerning life here and beyond, this book is a great read. Of course, those who believe the omnipotent creator and giver of life is a mere "superstition" ...
The Dawkins Delusion?: Atheist Fundamentalism and the Denial of the Divine

,
Joanna Collicutt Mcgrath
IVP Books
, 2007
MOST Readers Will Either Hate Or Love This Book
I enjoyed this book very much. It is well written, informative, and addresses many of the doubts raised lately by modern atheists regarding God, creation, et al. However, I do not believe that this book will change very many minds. You will get out of it what you ...
