Luckily, for the millions of American nonbelievers who have quietly stewed for years as the religious right made gains in politics and culture, the wait is over. Bestselling author Jack Huberman's zeitgeist sense has honed into the backlash building against religious fundamentalism and collected a veritable treasure trove of quotes by philosophers, scientists, poets, writers, artists, entertainers, and political figures. His colorful cast of atheists includes Karen Armstrong, Lance Armstrong, Jules Feiffer, Federico Fellini, H. L. Mencken, Ian McKellen, Isaac Singer, Jonathan Swift, Ludwig Wittgenstein, Virginia Woolf and the Marquis de Sade. Average Rating:
![]() Rating: - Annotated Atheist's GuideAnother vote for five stars. Laughed out loud. Very brief well-chosen selections serve as a guide to the primary sources. Donate a copy to the school library. Rating: - Entertaining read; poor reference bookI read this e-book cover to cover, highlighted many quotes, and annotated several.

If you've ever been tired of or have gotten a bit "out of sorts" with bible thumpers, door knockers, phone ringers, and pseuedo soul savers, who have that "in your face" attitude, here's your book of "comebacks". Be forewarned that you are sure to be labeled as a hell-bound sacrilege by any religious institution with whom you elect to "unload" any quantity of the quality contained within these pages. ...

In an age where so many intuit god, angels, devils, grace, sin it's nice to remember how many people have been declaring bunk for a long time. Only reason I put it down is to save some for later. Cheers. Rating: - Great for browsing anytimeThis is a great little book. One can pick it up from time to time, flip to any page and find a funny or enlightening quote. It also reminds readers that many prominent people throughout history have been nonbelievers. Guy P.
