Outgrowing God..
www.penguin.co.uk
A work with lot of insight and exploration...The book calls for a thorough reading..It questions many stereotypes..A tolerant reader would find it intriguing...
Starting from inherent contradictions in the holy books and the fading away of ancient gods with time, Dawkins establishes his atheist view with precision..backed by scientific evidence he proves his point..'Natural selection' of Darwin occupies a prominent place in the book to overthrow the popular perception of a divine creator..
Even an ardent believer will be bewildered to see the convincing interpretations doubting the very existence of God..
He rightly says about the impact of 'childhood indoctrination' an hindrance for unshackling of imprisoned religious belief injected from birth..
In the second part, expatiation on evolution may look as if he missed a trick in an attempt to clarify too much but then that fit for the purpose to suffice his point that our so called belief and worship system a load of codswallop.
The book may well put you in a quandary especially in the present time when all sacred men and places are running for cover..
On the whole it would give some food for thought in the minds of the reader of an outgrowing god.. undoubtedly, a cut above..
A pantheist🙏
