“Godless in America” is a testimonial about the advantages of life without gods and religions. It’s also a no-holds-barred look at some of the problems with both concepts. Written in a style that is conversational, yet provocative, it is a candid assessment of the real culture war being fought in America today: the attack being waged by the Religious Right on the values of personal freedom, democratic government, and the necessity for all Americans to be treated as equals before the law and by their government. At times humorous, at times outrageous, Godless in America treats religion and religious concepts as ideas that should be evaluated with the same standards used to evaluate all other ideas and concepts, not from the privileged position claimed by so many of a religious persuasion.

Written with the same candor and conversational style that characterized his earlier work, this selection of material from this web site ranges from rebuttals of criticisms of atheism to essays on science, some hot-button issues, to reflections on the joy of sailing and the impact of the world outside on the world within. The twenty-four essays cover a wide variety of subjects, and the collection concludes with the one-act play, “A last rite and some wrongs with apologetics.”
