God: The Case Against

God: The Case Against; examines the reasons why religious belief has such a strong hold on so large a section of humanity. It attempts to show that the reasons are inadequate. In particular, God and the idea of a life after death are examined and it is proposed that viable, coherent concepts are probably impossible in both cases. It is also shown, however, that the main alternative to theism, which is materialism, itself presents difficulties. This book is not intended for philosophers or theologians, rather, the aim is to make the arguments accessible to intelligent, intellectually curious, open-minded people.
