Description
A call to action to address people's psychological and social motives for a belief in god, rather than debate the existence of god.
With every argument for theism long since discredited, the result is that atheism has become little more than the noises reasonable people make in the presence of unjustified religious beliefs. Thus, engaging in interminable debate with religious believers about the existence of god has become exactly the wrong way for nonbelievers to try to deal with misguided - and often dangerous - belief in a higher power. The key, author James Lindsay argues, is to stop that particular conversation. He demonstrates that whenever people say they believe in "god", they are really telling us that they have certain psychological and social needs that they do not know how to meet. Lindsay then provides more productive avenues of discussion and action. Once nonbelievers understand this simple point, and drop the very label of atheist, will they be able to change the way we all think about, talk about, and act upon the troublesome notion called "god".

Including this author, wrong about God
This is a lengthy diatribe about how the meaning of a word can be ill-defined, and then set up a straw man definition which is then relentlessly attacked from a materialistic viewpoint.
Similarly, faith is attacked in a similar manner. What is funny is that this author believes in biological evolution as the origin of life as if there were factual proof of that. Evolutionists will most easily choke on a gnat and swallow a camel of anyone in society. Anyone with a brain that has not been overeducated and steeped in the pride of educational accolades can critically examine accidental evolution of the complex systems of life as preposterous due to complexity and the beautiful details of all the systems that make a single cell possible to exist.
Evolution can't even get off the ground with origin of life research. Takes a mighty faith to accept the logical improbability AND impossibllity of life coming about unplanned.
So, with biological evolution as the origin of life dead in the water of a primordial sea, we are left to deal with the fact that life is here, inexplicably, and that wondering about how it came about is logical. Faith is the means by which we carry on day to day without understanding every detail of how we are even possible. Creation is in itself awesome, and gives plenty of variables to consider. That God exists and nothing else is more logical than the opposite.
Reading this book may give you pause to consider how false religions also appear as contrivances of a godless mind devoid of inspiration, which seek to take advantage of the gullible. However, it settles no questions about the eternal at all. It's a rock crying out "I'm a rock, not a man".
