George Ricker's latest book, "mere atheism, no gods.no problem ,"
describes what he sees as the essence of atheism. In the title
essay he writes, "Nothing about atheism prevents me from thinking
about any idea. It is the very epitome of freethought. Atheism
imposes no dogma and seeks no power over others."
Written with the same candor and conversational style that
characterized his earlier work, this selection of material from the
"Godless in America" web site ranges from rebuttals of criticisms
of atheism, "Answering atheism's critics," to essays on science,
"Genes don't care," and some hot-button issues, "A death in the
life of a controversy," to reflections on the joy of sailing and
the impact of the world outside on the world within in
"Mockingbird."
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."
"Many people still cling to the notion of the village atheist,
obsessed by gods and religions, bitter and lonely, living on the
edge of town with no friends and no family willing to acknowledge
the kinship," Ricker says. "I hope this book will help change that
perception."
