Description

What is Atheism, and what are its logical and philosophical foundations? How does it relate to Humanism? Is religiosity a mental disorder, and why is it so hard to cure? Is there such a thing as free will? Do Atheists have funerals? Was The Amityville Horror really a true story? Who was Madalyn Murray O’Hair? Are we being inundated by a flood of religious disinformation? In addition to answers to these and other questions, readers of this fourth volume of THROUGH ATHEIST EYES will find a lot of humorous material as well?including the often hilarious Fun-With-Dial-an-Atheist pieces that have been recalled from the brink of oblivion and are being presented for one last performance. In addition, readers will find both words and music scores for the outrageous Dial-an-Atheist songs “Rutabaga Baby” and “Theophagy Tango.” To balance all that levity, this volume ends with “Poems I Have Spared” ?a swansong of sorts to prepare readers for the autobiographical Volume V: Atheist At Large.

About the Author
