  • The God Delusion is a book by the atheist Richard Dawkins, in which he attempts to show that belief in God is irrational. Dawkins' main objectives are to convince his readers that the existence of God or any other deity is highly unlikely, that the Bible is incoherent, that morality does not come from religion, and that if religion does effect morality, it only does so negatively. Critics have called the book "surprisingly intolerant".

abstract
  • The God Delusion is a book by the atheist Richard Dawkins, in which he attempts to show that belief in God is irrational. Dawkins' main objectives are to convince his readers that the existence of God or any other deity is highly unlikely, that the Bible is incoherent, that morality does not come from religion, and that if religion does effect morality, it only does so negatively. Critics have called the book "surprisingly intolerant". Dawkins also intends to teach that atheists can live happy, intelligent, lives—perhaps even happier lives than religious people. He asserts that atheists do not do evil things in the name of atheism, while religious people have been known to commit atrocities in the name of their religion.
  • The God Delusion is a book published by Richard Dawkins in 2006. It contains arguments for the non-existence of God. The God Delusion was and is a best seller, has been for many years and is a prime example of New atheism. Dawkins is one of today's most vocal advocates for atheism and his new book is a potent expression of a growing atheist viewpoint. While this book will almost certainly offend some believers, it will also bring relief to many skeptics. [1] The book does a great deal to encourage readers to apply Critical thinking and avoid accepting religious claims on faith. The book also shows readers that they can be comfortable about religious doubt, and further that they can feel comfortable following Humanist morality rather than Christian morality. Unsurprisingly many Christians hate that book, Christians can't even enjoy a good drink after copying impure text from The God Delusion.
