"All God Worshippers Are Mad: a little book of sanity" seeks to demonstrate in a logical common sense manner that the fundamental beliefs held by all monotheists are incomprehensible and lunatic. It attempts to show that god worshippers themselves do not understand the things they claim to believe, and by which they live their lives. Then it goes on to draw attention to why this matters so urgently in our own era, with the global rise of religious fascism.

What is said in this little book will no doubt be found impolite and overly-provocative by those authoritarian people within the politically correct establishment who conflate morality with niceness. They will probably utter the familiar refrain that we ought not to denigrate other people’s deeply and sincerely held beliefs. Instead we should live in a permanent state of apology for the crime of having minds of our own.

But religions are not above criticism and they have no right to a special status. Just because they claim a special status doesn’t mean that they’re entitled to it. Religions can and should be challenged like any other political ideologies. Besides which, large numbers of god worshippers feel free to denigrate and insult everyone else’s deeply held beliefs and values, so why should they have special permission to be hypocrites?

Topics covered:

  1. God
  2. Prayer
  3. Worship
  4. God the Infinite
  5. Immortality and Heaven
  6. Soul / Spirit
  7. Salvation
  8. Faith
  9. Spreading The Word
  10. Theocracy
  11. Theocracy and Nuclear Armageddon
  12. God, Guilty of Genocide
  13. Religion and Morality are Mutually Exclusive
  14. God worship is Immoral
  15. God worship is Obscene
  16. Everything is God’s Fault
  17. If it’s in The Book, then it Must be True
  18. Claiming Incomprehensible Beliefs
  19. Is Islamism the New Fascism?
  20. The Moderates
