Abridged Audiobook
Everyone should read this book.
Makes sense
Clear explanations and well substantiated arguments. This should be a compulsory read in schools worldwide. I found the audiobook a lot easier to absorb than the physical book.
it's an interesting book on the silliness of religions. Book has several interesting arguments and thoughts about the subject. It is somewhat repetitive, hence lower score. I was probably just hoping for a continuation of the selfish gene theory about religion being a self replicating virus of sorts. the topic is mentioned but just in passing. overall if you're less versed in the world of discussing religion from an atheist view point this is definitely a good book for tha
Fantastic book and incredible narration. Though I'm docking a star for unnecessary use of straw men, where idiots from the real world would've been more convincing. I have personally met numerous real life idiots who would have said the things made up to explain points in this book, so they are no doubt easy enough to come by, and would love the opportunity to defend their faith from the boogey man of atheism himself. Tip to listeners: turn on mono in your phone settings for this one, the narration is slightly panned left and right.
Brilliant book
This single book teaches more stuff than our entire education system. Only problem is it’s solely dedicated on abrahamic religions.
I have just finished Richard Dawkins’ “The God Delusion”. I found it really affirming and reassuring to hear an experienced and educated atheist speak openly and articulately about gods and religion. For anyone who seeks wiser rebuttals and understanding of people’s faith I heartily recommend it.
Having come from a place far from God in stubborn stability in my logic, through to an understanding of God's heart as much one man can. I've got to say it's pretty amazing seeing how God has created and designed everything with a perfect explanation for every question, and without having to compromise other's science, or commit professional suicide. Anyway, with that said, I feel I'm in a credible place to say Hawking fails to truly open himself to see both sides before taking the side he does.
