About this ebook
Using logic, common sense, philosophy, ethics, history, and science, the author rebuts every argument that claims to "prove" the existence of God.
IS THERE REALLY A GOD?
OR DOES GOD EXIST ONLY IN OUR HEADS?
IS THE BIBLE TRULY GOD'S WORD?
OR IS IT A JUMBLE OF FANCIFUL MYTHS?
Atheist Universe details why God is unnecessary to explain the universe's diversity, organization and beauty. Using simple, straightforward logic, this book rebuts every argument that claims to "prove" God's existence.
A comprehensive primer for countering today's religious dogma, Atheist Universe addresses all the historical and scientific questions, including:
•What is atheism, and why is it so misunderstood?
•If God is a myth, then how did the universe appear?
•Without God, is there an objective "right" and "wrong"?
•What is the meaning of life without God?
•Is there evidence of Jesus's miracles and resurrection?
•Can atheists explain "near death" experiences and medical miracles?
•Can science and the Bible realistically be reconciled?
•What is the behind-the-scenes relationship between politics and religion?
"An admirable work." —Richard Dawkins
"David's work will be very useful for anyone combating harmful religious beliefs. Honest, frank, and right to the point!"—Albert Ellis, Ph.D., father of modern psychotherapy, author of A Guide to Rational Living

Challenges traditional religious beliefs. Describes the importance of critical thinking & skepticism in examining religious dogma. Mills highlights the scientific understanding of the universe & argues that it is not necessary to believe in a higher power to find meaning & purpose in life. The book also emphasizes the importance of ethical & moral values, which can be derived from human reason & compassion, rather than from divine intervention. It questions & challenges religious dogma.

When strangers want you to be an atheist, it's for a reason that benefits whoever's funding them
