In the tradition of Bertrand Russell's Why I Am Not a Christian, Christopher Hitchens makes the ultimate case against religion. In a series of acute readings of the major religious texts, ge demonstrates the ways in which religion is man-made, dangerously sexually repressive and distorts the origin of the universe. With robust clarity, he frames the argument for a more secular life based on science and reason, in which hell is replaced by the Hubble Telescope's view of the cosmos and Moses and the burning bush guve way to the beauty and symmetry of double helix.

God is Not Great marvels at the possibility of society without religion, arguing that the concept of an omniscient God has profoundly damaged humanity. Hitchens proposes instead that the world might be a great deal better off without 'him'.

O livro é bom, eu só achei que o autor vai e volta nos assuntos muito rapidamente e acaba confundindo um pouco, mas vale a pena.
