Publisher Description
In god is Not Great Hitchens turned his formidable eloquence and rhetorical energy to the most controversial issue in the world: God and religion. The result is a devastating critique of religious faith
god Is Not Great is the ultimate case against religion. In a series of acute readings of the major religious texts, Christopher Hitchens demonstrates the ways in which religion is man-made, dangerously sexually repressive and distorts the very origins of the cosmos. Above all, Hitchens argues that the concept of an omniscient God has profoundly damaged humanity, and proposes that the world might be a great deal better off without 'him'.

Phenomenal
I stumbled upon this book in a store while visiting the USA. I ended up buying it here on Apple Books and I’m so glad that I did. I grew up Christian and soon became an atheist after discovering Dawkins’ The Good Delusion and taking the time to read it. I had always struggled with the lack of evidence supporting the existence of God, along with the amount of harsh misogyny and homophobia present in religious books. God is Not Great really helps to explore different ideas. It’s helped me to articulate to my strict religious friends why I’m an atheist. The author is clearly very intelligent and I’m eager to read more of his books.
