| adam_text | RECENT
YEARS
ATHEISM HAS BECOME
EVER MORE
VISIBLE,
ACCEPTABLE,
AND
INFLUENTIAL.
ATHEIST
APOLOGISTS
HAVE
BECOME INCREASINGLY
VOCIFEROUS
AND
CONFIDENT
IN THEIR
CLAIMS:
THAT A
MORALITY REQUIRING BENEVOLENCE TOWARDS
ALL
AND UNIVERSAL HUMAN RIGHTS NEED NOT
BE GROUNDED IN RELIGION; THAT MODERN
SCIENCE DISPROVES THE EXISTENCE
OF GOD;
AND THAT THERE IS NOTHING INNATELY
RELIGIOUS ABOUT HUMAN
BEINGS.
IN
ATHEIST
OVERREACH,
CHRISTIAN
SMITH
TAKES
A
LOOK
AT THE EVIDENCE AND
ARGUMENTS, AND
EXPLAINS
WHY WE
OUGHT
TO BE SKEPTICAL
OF
THESE
ATHEISTS CLAIMS
ABOUT MORALITY, SCIENCE,
AND
HUMAN
NATURE.
HE
DOES
NOT
ARGUE
THAT ATHEISM
IS NECESSARILY
WRONG,
BUT RATHER THAT
ITS
ADVOCATES
ARE ADVANCING
CRUCIAL
CLAIMS THAT ARE NEITHER RATIONALLY
DEFENSIBLE NOR REALISTIC.
THEIR
COMMITTED
WORLDVIEW
FEEDS
UNHELPFUL
ARGUMENTS
AND
CONTRIBUTES TO THE INCREASING
POLARIZATION
OF
TODAYS
POLITICAL
LANDSCAPE.
EVERYONE
INVOLVED
IN THE THEISM-ATHEISM
DEBATES,
IN
SHARED
MORAL
REFLECTION, AND
IN
THE
PUBLIC
CONSUMPTION
OF
THE FINDINGS
OF
SCIENCE
SHOULD
BE
COMMITTED TO
CAREFUL
REASONING AND RIGOROUS
CRITICISM.
THIS
BOOK
PROVIDES
READERS
WITH
THE
INFORMATION
THEY NEED
TO
PARTICIPATE MORE
KNOWLEDGABLY
IN
DEBATES
ABOUT ATHEISM
AND
WHAT
IT
MEANS
FOR OUR SOCIETY.
