Disbelief 101: A Young Person’s Guide to Atheism, by S.C. Hitchcock.

Description

This witty exploration into atheism and rational thinking is written specifically for young adults, although many older people will also find it of value. Not just focused on atheism, this crash course in logical thinking addresses the issue of indoctrination, whether religious, political, or commercial, and makes the case that morality is created through reason, logic, and our basic social nature, not through divine commands. The book touches on many hot topics, such as the traditional arguments for God’s existence, the relationship of evolution and religious belief, the incompatible nature of science and religion, and the harmfulness of both Christianity and Islam.
