    Default Atheism: A Very Short Introduction

    Atheism: A Very Short Introduction by Julian Baggini is probably my favourite book to recommend to atheists (who haven't read it) to assist in arguing their points, and to theists who want a clear and concise set of arguments that oppose their beliefs. It's a quick read of about 100 pages, and covers the most salient arguments for atheism. Features robot popes and elephants in the fridge!

    Thank you, Luis. I will check it out. Learning new arguments is always helpful.

    Ordered it! It should arrive in a week.
    I have another interesting book to recomend. It's science fiction and I read it when I was really young.
    It's called Childhood's End by Sir Arthur C. Clarke.

    Hey if you guys ever order books from Amazon and feel like supporting the forum at the same time, I have an amazon affiliate account. I think I get 4-8% of each sale through referrals, so if there's a book you want I'll throw it in my shop and post the link.

    All money through affiliate sales I use to pay for forum expenses and if I ever have enough money, advertising (costs quite a bit).

    Buy atheist books from our Amazon affiliate book store, Click Here! We earn commission from every sale and use it to pay for server costs and upgrades. If you don't see the Book/DVD/Music/etc you want, send me a PM and I will add it to the store.

    You're going to like it. It's a quick read, very lucid, highly readable. Also very amusing in some bits. Well worth it.
