Title: Godless Subtitle: How an Evangelical Preacher Became One of America's Leading Atheists Author: Richard Dawkins - foreword, Dan Barker Narrator: Dan Barker, Richard Dawkins Format: Unabridged Length: 19 hrs and 26 mins Language: English Release date: 12-09-15 Publisher: Pitchstone Publishing Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 372 votes Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Religious Figures Publisher's Summary: From the introduction by Dan Barker: Millions of good people live moral, happy, loving, meaningful lives without believing in a god. Oprah said it was 17 years, but it was actually 19 years between my first sermon at the age of 15 and my last sermon at the age of 34. Part 1 of Godless, "Rejecting God", tells the story of how I moved from devout preacher to atheist and beyond. Part 2, "Why I Am an Atheist", presents my philosophical reasons for unbelief. Part 3, "What's Wrong with Christianity", critiques the bible (its reliability as well as its morality) and the historical evidence for Jesus. Part 4, "Life Is Good!", comes back to my personal story, taking a case to the United States Supreme Court, dealing with personal trauma, and experiencing the excitement of Adventures in Atheism. Critic Reviews: "Valuable in the human story are the reflections of intelligent and ethical people who listen to the voice of reason and who allow it to vanquish bigotry and superstition. This book is a classic example." (Christopher Hitchens, author of God is Not Great) "The most eloquent witness of internal delusion that I know - a triumphantly smiling refugee from the zany, surreal world of American fundamentalist Protestantism - is Dan Barker." (Richard Dawkins, author of The God Delusion) " Godless was a revelation to me. I don't think anyone can match the (devastating!) clarity, intensity, and honesty which Dan Barker brings to the journey - faith to reason, childhood to growing up, fantasy to reality, intoxication to sobriety." (Oliver Sacks, author of Musicophilia)
