In the voice of a guardian angel, the author responds to the book "The God delusion" by Richard Dawkins. Serves as a clarion call to the faithless, the waverers, and even firm religious believers, to follow the author into radical atheism not merely as a private conviction but as a public profession. Wouldn't humankind be better off without religion, the author asks.
Richard Dawkins's The God Delusion has been one of the most divisive books of modern times. Whilst championed by atheists, the response from the majority of the religious community was one of dismissive anger. John Cornwell reacted differently.
Masquerading as a guardian angel, Cornwell corrects Dawkins on his errors of judgement and fundamental misunderstanding of faith. Instead of anger Cornwell confronts Dawkins calmly, offering rational, reasoned opinions, defending religion with elegance and great imagination. In a telling critique, John Cornwell takes issue with Richard Dawkins' The God Delusion.
