"Fr. Pasquini's work puts to death the intellectual hopes for atheism and brings to light the mental disorder behind the atheist mindset....With the advances in molecular biology, 'cosmic' mathematics, and the psychology of atheism, atheism has lost its intellectual validity-being more the product of a psychological disorder whose origins are found in childhood development."

"Religion poisons everything." So say Christopher Hitchens and the entire cast of New Atheists. Thus, if you want to make the world a better place, the New Atheists would recommend getting rid of religion. But John Gravino disagrees. In The Immoral Landscape, John Gravino argues that the real problem with the world is not religion; it is human nature. And the problem with our human nature is located in our minds. The key to making the world a better place, therefore, depends on the healing of the human mind. But how exactly do we go about the important business of healing our minds? The world of science has been amazingly successful in so many areas, but the one glaring exception to the nearly flawless track record of the sciences is in the study of mental disorder. While science has been able to find cures for so many physical diseases, a cure for mental illness has proven elusive. John Gravino offers an explanation. Science is unable to cure the mind because the mind is a fundamentally different organism. The human mind is spiritual, not physical; and thus, it obeys the spiritual laws of the universe. If you want to make the world a better place, John Gravino argues that getting rid of religion-the true source of the spiritual laws of the universe-is the worst thing you can do. In The Immoral Landscape, John Gravino presents his case, based on empirical evidence, that the only thing that can save the world is true religion because only true religion has the power to heal the human mind. And what is that true religion? It is true Christianity, of course! This book is a real game-changer for sure. It will knock you out! You can follow John Gravino online at newwalden.org.

What is atheism, and what are its logical and philosophical foundations? How does it relate to humanism? Is religiosity a mental disorder, and why is it so hard to cure? Is there such a thing as free will? Do atheists have funerals? Was "The Amityville Horror" a true story? Who was Madalyn Murray O'Hair? Are we being inundated with a flood of religious disinformation? In addition to the answers of these questions, readers of this fourth volume of a five-volume series will find a lot of humor as well, including the Fun-With-Dial-an-Atheist pieces, recalled from the brink of oblivion for one last performance. Also in this volume are the words and music scores to the outrageous Dial-an-Atheist songs "Rutabaga Baby" and "Theophagy Tango." To balance all that levity, the book ends with "Poems I Have Spared," a swan song of sorts to prepare readers for the autobiographical "Volume V: Atheist at Large." A helpful index is included.

The Existence of God is an affirmation of faith in God and a warning of the dangers of a world guided by the religion of atheism. This book warns against a religion based upon chance, deficient science, and deficient atheistic evolution (as opposed to theistic evolution). Modern advances in molecular biology, 'cosmic' mathematics, and the psychology of atheism have vanquished atheism's intellectual and psychological raison d' tre. In one of history's great ironies, the birth of the New Atheism has brought about the beginning of the end of atheism as a legitimate intellectual position.

In this updated, expanded edition, starting with Freud's "projection theory" of religion - that belief in God is merely a product of man's desire for security - Professor Vitz argues that psychoanalysis actually provides a more satisfying explanation for atheism. Disappointment in one's earthly father, whether through death, absence, or mistreatment, frequently leads to a rejection of God. A biographical survey of influential atheists of the past four centuries shows that this "defective father hypothesis" provides a consistent explanation of the "intense atheism" of these thinkers. A survey of the leading defenders of Christianity over the same period confirms the hypothesis, finding few defective fathers. Vitz concludes with an intriguing comparison of male and female atheists and a consideration of other psychological factors that can contribute to atheism. Professor Vitz does not argue that atheism is psychologically determined. Each man, whatever his experiences, ultimately chooses to accept God or reject him. Yet the cavalier attribution of religious faith to irrational, psychological needs is so prevalent that an exposition of the psychological factors predisposing one to atheism is necessary. Ê

A new perspective. Defending religion as a cultural institution in the face of resurgent atheistic thought For centuries, the theism-atheism debate has been dominated by two positions: stringent believers committed to the "yes, there is a God" argument, and atheists vehemently driven to repudiate not only God, but also religion as a cultural institution. To date, this is the first and only mainstream book in which a nonbeliever criticizes atheism and affirms religion. An Atheist Defends Religion persuasively argues that religion is overwhelmingly beneficial for humanity, regardless of whether God exists, based on a new paradigm of 10 affirmative dimensions that make up religious experience. It also puts to rest the theory that religion is behind most of the world's sectarian violence by showing that religion becomes evil when it is politicized. Readers will learn they do not have to be fundamentalists to be believers, and about the value and benefits of religion itself.

A book for nonbelievers who embrace the reality-driven life. We can't avoid the persistent questions about the meaning of life-and the nature of reality. Philosopher Alex Rosenberg maintains that science is the only thing that can really answer them—all of them. His bracing and ultimately upbeat book takes physics seriously as the complete description of reality and accepts all its consequences. He shows how physics makes Darwinian natural selection the only way life can emerge, and how that deprives nature of purpose, and human action of meaning, while it exposes conscious illusions such as free will and the self. The science that makes us nonbelievers provides the insight into the real difference between right and wrong, the nature of the mind, even the direction of human history. The Atheist's Guide to Reality draws powerful implications for the ethical and political issues that roil contemporary life. The result is nice nihilism, a surprisingly sanguine perspective atheists can happily embrace.

Religion has been a fundamental aspect of human societies throughout history, but is on the decline in the modern scientific era. Simultaneously, Autism rates are on the rise, raising questions about whether this increase is due to improved diagnosis and recognition of the condition or if reflects an actual rise in prevalence. We explore the complexities of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), its potential causes, and the implications it holds for the future of humanity and evolution. Autism is a difference in intuitive thinking and understanding of the world. The differences in thinking from the point of view of the general population are often seen as deficits. Drawing on work from Ara Norenzayan this book explores the hypothesis that the deficits in theory of mind that Autistic people experience constrain their ability to believe in a God and accept religious claims. This book is an exploration of the evolutionary psychology of religion and Autism. What is the future of religion and its place in human evolution?
