Progressive Atheism shows how atheism can make progress in
humanity's future. It presents a new way of arguing that God
doesn't exist, based on a portrayal of God so positive that you may
sometimes wonder whether you're reading the thoughts of a believer.
Starting with the simple idea that our understanding of what it
takes to be a good person has changed and grown over time, J. L.
Schellenberg argues that our understanding of the goodness of God
must now change too. Masculine images of God as haughty King or
distant Father have to be replaced by God as a paragon of
nonviolence and relational openness. This more evolved conception
of God is incredibly attractive and admirable. But by the same
token it has become less believable. Each moral advance, applied to
God, makes it even clearer that such a being would never create a
world like ours. Atheists have often approached the subject of God
with disdain. Progressive Atheism proves that admiration will be
far more powerful.
