The Moral Superiority of Atheism (Paperback)

Religion is the single greatest barrier to human morality. Its fantastical claims breed ignorance and contempt of reality. Its arbitrary and unnatural rules engender confusion of purpose and lead to abnormal behaviors. Its false promises of undeliverable treasures and eternal existence promote apathy and disdain for real life. Its threats of torture and exile terrify and enslave entire populations. It is only natural, then, that those able to avoid-or break free of-religion's shackles are better able to realize their inborn and a-theistic morality. In "The Moral Superiority of Atheism," lifelong atheist and award-winning journalist Benjamin J. Gohs explains how true objective morality originates from the same source that created the world's fictitious god characters and their respective religions-the human brain. Ultimately, "The Moral Superiority of Atheism" refutes centuries of erroneous propaganda about the nature of atheists, and offers a guide to sharing the truth about true goodness ... mankind's Natural Atheistic Morality.
