If God exists, then why did He create the universe, and what is the purpose and goal of my life? If God is all powerful, then how can we have free will?

Stripping “good" and "evil” down to the basics, he offers a simple compass for navigating life's most difficult moral and ethical dilemmas.

Über Gott reden ja viele, wenngleich die meisten nur glauben, etwas über den Allmächtigen zu wissen. Und die, die etwas zu wissen glauben, Religionswissenschaftler, behaupten, Naturwissenschaftler könnten über Gott sowieso nichts sagen. Die drei Autoren dieses Hörbuchs treten den Gegenbeweis an: der Astrophysiker Harald Lesch, der an der Hochschule der Jesuiten Philosophie unterrichtet, der Psychiater Manfred Spitzer, dem Wahnvorstellungen nicht fremd sind, und der Intellektuellste unter den Kabarettisten, Günther "Gunkl" Paal.

Rife with criticisms on Christianity and the technocracy, Bakunin presses communist values without fear of bordering extremism. Listening to this work is like walking through Bakunin’s disjointed mind; often cutting off and starting mid-sentence, including footnotes several paragraphs long as if his thoughts suddenly start to wander, as well as ending rather abruptly mid-sentence.
