Acerca deste audiolibro

Does goodness require God? Do we need eternity for meaningful lives? Should we believe in God without evidence? With historical adherents as various as Mark Twain, Einstein, Freud, Philip Pullman and Frank Zappa, humanism’s central quest is to live with meaning with no need for the supernatural. Showing how humanists make sense of the world using reason, experience and sensitivity, Cave emphasises that we can, and should, flourish without God. Lively, provocative and refreshingly rant-free, this audiobook is essential listening for all – whether atheist, agnostic, believer, or of no view – who wish better to understand what it means to be human.
