Rise to Reason is an in-depth and undaunted examination of the contradictions, errors, and misunderstandings of which Christianity vastly consists. The book speaks to many individuals: - The believer who is beginning to doubt what Christianity tells her. - The believer unsure how to proceed-Do I dare break away? - The non-believer who desires a fuller understanding of the true nature of Christianity. - The non-believer who would broaden her knowledge of the fallacies of Christianity and reconfirm her atheism, deepen her commitment to humanism, and lay to rest any remaining doubts. - Anyone seeking knowledge of Christianity over the myths of Christianity-the truth regarding miracles and the actual reason for the seeming continuity from book-to-book of the Bible. Addressed are such topics as - The fallacy of prayer. - The logical paradox that renders impossible the purely human notion of God being all-powerful, and/or all-knowing. - The origin of the concept of Satan. - The fictional nature and origins of key Bible characters, such as Abraham, Moses, and Jesus. - The role of midrash and pesher in biblical authorship, and how they came to be mistaken for prophecy and biblical book-to-book continuity. - The Backlash effect/cognitive dissonance. - What the Book of Revelation is actually saying, and why we needn't fear its grim prophecies. Sometimes shocking yet always informative, Rise to Reason is a factual, down-to-earth view through adult eyes of the concepts instilled in us as children-beliefs many have carried into adulthood having never questioned. There are no diatribes, no tirades-just a factual scrutiny of things as they really are; a thorough examination of Christianity from a science-based, rational point of view grounded in highly readable scholarship. This book has the potential to change lives.
