The Atheist Chronicles E-BOOK

The Atheist Chronicles: Why the Beliefs of Theists of Every Stripe Are So Unbelievable

I would like to thank Ricky Gervais and the late George Carlin, two funny atheists, for their inspiration and motivation. I recently saw Carlin address religion in one of his comedy specials. He was both funny and profound. And I saw Gervais in an interview in which  he talked about atheism, religion and comedy. Their words helped me decide that it was time to write this book, a book that is for everybody -- atheists, agnostics and believers of every faith.

Agnostics, if you struggling with you doubts, read this book and struggle no more. You will be able to happily move into the big atheist tent.  Atheists, you know that god, the Bible (and all holy books) and all religions are myths. Now here is a book that puts your thoughts into words using logic, research, the words of believers and even humour. And hey, if you are currently a believer and if you are still a believer after reading this book, then you have demonstrated to yourself that your faith is strong. Ridiculous. But strong.

The fact that my father, a man who could out fundamentalist any fundamentalist Christian out there, has passed away has also helped me write this book, I must confess. It's not that I couldn't write the book with him alive. It's just that with my dad deceased I don't have to listen to him point out all the ways that I am wrong -- other than when I say other believers who are not Pentecostals (the fundamentalist Christian sect to which my dad belonged) are misguided in their beliefs.

That thinking, shared by just about every religious sect out there -- "You're wrong!" "No, you're wrong!" "No, you are both wrong!" -- is at the heart of The Atheist Chronicles. Because no matter your faith, you are all wrong -- each and every one of you. Wrong. Wrong. Wrong. And this book will tell you exactly why.

Written by successful freelance writer, author, and writing instructor Paul Lima, The Atheist Chronicles is a  serious look at a subject that has caused more people more pain than just about any other issue -- other than intense poverty, hunger and starvation, and wars (often fought in the names of competing gods).
