David Baddiel would love there to be a God. He has spent a lot of time fantasising about how much better life would be if there actually was such a thing as a Superhero Dad who chased off Death. Unfortunately for him, there isn’t. Or at least, that is Baddiel’s view in this book, which argues that it is indeed the very intensity of his, and everyone else’s, desire for God to exist that proves His non-existence. Anything so deeply wished-for we will, considers Baddiel, make real.

The true danger to humanity occurs when theology is given the force of dogma & doctrine.

Two thousand five hundred years ago, Confucius, Buddha, and Socrates all concluded, at slightly different times and thousands of miles apart, that a caring god simply did not exist. Then Abraham, Moses, and Jesus Christ (or rather the religion created in his name 334 years after his death) did their best to enslave humanity and hide that simple wisdom from us.

Christen sollten neu über Art und Ausdrucksformen ihrer Anbetung nachdenken. Es ist wichtig, die dahinter liegenden Überzeugungen, Bedürfnisse und Anliegen zu verstehen.

Der Berliner Theologe und Liedermacher Martin Pepper entwickelt ein Kaleidoskop von Anliegen und Archetypen für eine lebendige Anbetungspraxis.

By examining Dodgson's religious education and core beliefs, this book shows how a deep Christian faith guided every part of his life and work.

He writes of war and revolution, the need of an absolute (God), and the roots of democracy, patriotism, and peace. He shows that the culture war is not merely political and economic but also theological.
