Description

If God does not exist, then what does? Is there good and evil, and should we care? How do we know what's true anyway? And can we make any sense of this universe, or our own lives? Sense and Goodness Without God answers these questions in lavish detail, without complex jargon. Arguing that there is only a physical, natural world without gods or spirits, noted historian and philosopher Richard Carrier presents and defends a complete worldview, one in which we can live a life of love, meaning, and joy. In the process, he covers every relevant subject, from knowledge to art, from metaphysics to morality, from theology to politics. Specific topics include free will, the nature of the universe, the meaning of life, the science of beauty, and much more.

Although written for a lay audience, Sense and Goodness Without God tackles the sophisticated attacks on naturalism by the likes of Plantinga, Moreland, Reppert, and others, and clearly and methodically explains why the naturalistic worldview is more credible than any other.

the book I've wanted all my life

love it, listening again. this is everything I've come to believe in my own written down better than I ever could and is researched to high heavens and back.

great scholar, I love his new work, but this is his Magnum Opus. or manifesto for metaphysical humanists, which I've learned I am.

I hope this grows the society he talks about, as I've found it's a lonely but rewarding path. I wouldn't mind meeting some like minded people.

Listen to this book, it contains more wisdom and facts than any of the ancients tomes even by the greatest philosophers like Plato and Rousseau, as he's standing in the shoulders of giants, but it's a modern compilation of how to live a good life.

you will find more in how to be good, and how the world started and life came to be, the size of the universe. compare that to the Bible or other spiritual or philosophic books that are so esoteric as to be useless in practice.

if there was a church of this community that actually collected charity for the poor and such like churches used to, I would attend every week.

Excellent Book

Richard is an excellent communicator. His logical arguments are solid and well thought out. He does a masterful job of communicating his point of view. He is very precise with the words that he chooses which do not allow for alternate interpretations of what he is saying. I really appreciate that form of writing. There is no guessing what is being communicated. It's all there in the text.

Many people may not like what Richard writes about simply because it is uncomfortable when set beliefs are torn apart by fact and logic. That is just a sign of their own insecurity. Changing beliefs is not a sign of mental weakness but rather it is a sign of mental maturity. It is far easier to fool someone than to convince someone that they have been fooled. I agree with Richard that religious believers have simply been fooled. They are still valuable people. They have just been taught something false or at least inaccurate.

This book is a great read. The book is full of content and it takes conscious attention to truly take it all in and trully understand and appreciate what Richard is writing about. This book is not for light-hearted readers who want something light. This book is for "thinkers".
