| Publisher Description: Religious beliefs and institutions continue to be the cause of many problems around the world. Over the last 100,00+ years humankind has gone through three different phases in trying to understand and explain how things came to be: The Magical, The Religious and now The Scientific. Is it now time to dispense with mythology and superstitions as a way to live our lives and fully embrace the scientific method? This book incisively scrutinises religions, refuting their claims by assessing the evidence from cosmology, evolutionary biology, theology, philosophy, morality and the scientific method. The analysis is sprinkled throughout with humour and quotes to keep the reader engaged from start to finish. |
Contributor Bio(s): Klein, Peter: - Raised on a diet of science and travel, Peter klein was born in Melbourne, Australia in 1970. He has travelled widely and has so far visited 37 different countries. This exposure and his thirst for knowledge has made him aware of the various issues created by the different religions across the globe. Raising a daughter has made him more acutely aware of the inequities and devaluation of women created and upheld by religious teachings and the necessity to elevate this discussion further. |
