Product info

<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>What drives us to be good? How do we even know how to be good? Philosophers and theologians have dealt with such questions for millennia, but Dan Barker thinks the answers are not so complicated. In <i>Mere Morality</i>, he argues there's no need to appeal to supernatural commandments or the fear of some higher power when considering morality. Stripping "good" and "evil" down to the basics, he offers a simple compass for navigating life's most difficult moral and ethical dilemmas.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Dan Barker's <i>Mere Morality</i> is a potent riposte to C. S. Lewis' <i>Mere Christianity</i>, a book much beloved by Christian apologists. Barker exposes the myriad of biblical practices that could be deemed immoral today, especially because so much of the Bible was written within a master-slave view of the world. <i>Mere Morality </i>offers a real-world view of morality grounded in behavioral biology, reason, and law." --Hector Avalos, author of <i>Fighting Words: The Origins of Religious Violence</i><br><br>"Former pastor Dan Barker's eloquent and subtle antidote to <i>Mere Christianity</i> shows us by example how a very good person can get along fine without religion, inspiring others, accomplishing great works, and having a lot of fun in the bargain." --Daniel C. Dennett, University Professor and Austin B. Fletcher Professor of Philosophy at Tufts University<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Dan Barker</b> served as an evangelical preacher for nearly 20 years until he decided to leave Christianity. Today he is co-president of the Freedom from Religion Foundation and co-host of Freethought Radio. A widely sought-after lecturer, debater, and performer, he is author of <i>Godless: How an Evangelical Preacher Became One of America's Leading Atheists</i> and <i>God: The Most Unpleasant Character in All Fiction</i>. He lives in Madison, Wisconsin.
