Summary

  • "Science can't explain the complexity and order of life; God must have designed it to be this way."
  • "God's existence is proven by scripture."
  • "There's no evidence that God doesn't exist."
  • "God has helped me so much. How could none of it be true?"
  • "Atheism has killed more people than religion, so it must be wrong!"

How many times have you heard arguments like these for why God exists? Why There Is No God provides simple, easy-to-understand counterpoints to the most popular arguments made for the existence of God. Each chapter presents a concise explanation of the argument, followed by a response illustrating the problems and fallacies inherent in it. Whether you're an atheist, a believer, or undecided, this book offers a solid foundation for building your own inquiry about the concept of God.

a very shortsighted view into popular debate

Navabi is not a philosopher and it truly shows throughout this book. thoroughly misguided argumentation.

Good Summay poor narration

If you could sum up Why There Is No God in three words, what would they be?

God exists in people's minds

Who was your favorite character and why?

Not relevant

How did the narrator detract from the book?

He went too fast, sounded like reaing the news - no time to digest what is said - a book like this should be at least 4 hours naration.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

no

Any additional comments?

Good book - good summary and very wise reasoning and insights

Looking forward to hearing more from the Author

For any Atheist looking for a good way to articulate your arguments then this book is for you. I'd advise Theists to read the book as well in order to understand the way in which Atheists think and how disbelief comes about. The narrator did a good job overall but sounded a bit too monotone for my liking.

Just not easy to listen to.

Ok, I get the message and agree with most of it, but the narration is terrible. It’s rushed and flat. Also none of the concepts are dealt with in more than the most trivial way. There are far more compelling titles in this subject.

Out you come (It's easier these days)

In earlier times, the realisation that you are an atheist was cause for some concern, but these days, with everything being so polar and equally divided, it's not such a big deal. For those who are embarking on the journey or 'coming out', this book is a ray of hope, to let you know you're not alone, and the questions you may have are not unheard-of.

Excellent narrative, Very detailed counter argumen

A very detailed battery of counter arguments against all the stereotypes believers throws at us Atheist. A full chapter dedicated to each of those arguments, developing counter arguments going from witty catching phrases or thoughts (quite useful for not in deep discussions) to a much more profound disassembling of those hackneyed concepts. Would and actually have already recommend to smart people interested in break through imposed absurd fairy tales

Logical and humble, overall excellent.

Excellent use of logic arguments and identification of cognitive biases. I would class it as "philosophy" and not as "science", as it opens avenues for thinking and proposes hypotheses that need to be tested. Quite short and making me crave for more (and this is a good thing, I did not get bored at all) It thoroughly deserves the 5 stars.
