John W. Loftus has an impressive back catalog of books that thoroughly debunk the belief in (the Judeo-Christian) God. With this book, he is adding to that repository of counter-apologetics resources with a collection of both previously written and original pieces gathered together in one place.
Added to these opening statements, Part II of his book comprises some original material and other pieces that support his claims, including an argument for atheism from the size of the universe, and a critique of William Lane Craig's inner witness of the Holy Spirit. In essence, this book is a DVD extras collection of writing that packs a flurry of varied punches against theism, and that sits neatly next to his other great books.
A book like this is the icing on the cake of everything else that Loftus has written and provides a great starting point to launch into further research on these different topics: the existence of God, Jesus' birth and resurrection, faith, atheism, epistemology, suffering and genocide. Big subjects about which Loftus has written in great depth elsewhere. But this is as good a place to start as anywhere.
- Jonathan M.S. Pearce, author of 30 Arguments Against the Existence of God
Loftus does a formidable job explaining how theism-especially totalitarian monotheism-is undermined by what we now know about the universe.... The books written and edited by John Loftus...demonstrate so clearly that apologists are fighting a losing battle.
- David Madison, author of Ten Things Christians Wish Jesus Hadn't Taught: And Other Reasons to Question His Words
