SynopsisExpanding on a concept from New York Times bestseller The God Delusion , former ordained minister and current atheist Dan Barker gives us a biblical play-by-play illustrating God's not-so-admirable qualities. What words come to mind when we think of God? Merciful? Just? Compassionate? In fact, the Bible lays out God's primary qualities clearly: jealous, petty, unforgiving, bloodthirsty, vindictive--and worse! Originally conceived as a joint presentation between influential thinker and bestselling author Richard Dawkins and former evangelical preacher Dan Barker, this unique book provides an investigation into what may be the most unpleasant character in all fiction. Barker combs through both the Old and New Testament (as well as 13 different editions of the "Good Book"), presenting powerful evidence for why the Scripture shouldn't govern our everyday lives. This witty, well-researched book suggests that we should move past the Bible and clear a path to a kinder and more thoughtful world., Expanding on a concept from New York Times bestseller The God Delusion , former ordained minister and current atheist Dan Barker gives us a biblical play-by-play illustrating God's not-so-admirable qualities.

  • incredible truth all the world should be taught in school.

    incredible insight into how brainwashed all societies are. we are born free and everything after that is brainwashing. such a waste of time just performing rituals and most persons not even questioning why. god is not great. if the god of the bible created all humans then why do we have so many different gods. almost all nations have there own versions. this book should be taught to every school in the nations before anyone attended any church. great eye opener.

  • God : The Most Unpleasant Character in All Fiction

    Great book from Dan Barker (Richard Dawkins quotes all through the book). This book will open your eyes to what religion/Christianity is all about (money, politics, control, and hypocrisy).
