Man becomes God: Forging a successful atheist society

By Adrian Shepherd

In the passionate debate between atheists and religious believers, one neglected area is whether atheism can be good for society. This warm and accessible analysis answers five myths told by religious believers about atheism's impact on society such as: -Atheism means no-one knows what is right and wrong -Atheism means people aren't strong enough to cope with the pain that life can bring -Atheist governments violate human rights -Atheism robs people of their freedom of will and makes them puppets to their genes -Atheism is a rejection of religion rather and lacks positive beliefs of its own Drawing upon the liberal values of freedom, tolerance and equality, these assertions are shown to be untrue. In doing so, the analysis gives atheism the emotional depth and intellectual resilience it needs to become the mainstream creed of a successful British society.
