'All the erudition and pithy wit you would expect from Humphrys,
but there is also a charming, genuine enquiry that shines through'
MAIL ON SUNDAY * * * * * * Bestselling author, radio presenter and
national treasure John Humphrys tackles the big question of God
through his own personal journey and argues that doubt is the only
credible belief. Throughout the ages believers have been persecuted
- usually for believing in the "wrong" God. So have non-believers
who have denied the existence of God as superstitious rubbish.
Today it is the agnostics who are given a hard time. They are
scorned by believers for their failure to find faith and by
atheists for being hopelessly wishy-washy and weak-minded. But John
Humphrys is proud to count himself among their ranks. In this book
he takes us along the spiritual road he himself has travelled. He
was brought up a Christian and prayed every day of his life until
his growing doubts finally began to overwhelm his faith. As one of
the nation's most popular and respected broadcasters, he had the
rare opportunity in 2006 of challenging leaders of our three main
religions to prove to him that God does exist. The Radio Four
interviews - Humphrys In Search of God - provoked the biggest
response to anything he has done in half a century of journalism.
The interviews and the massive reaction from listeners had a
profound effect on him - but not in the way he expected. Doubt is
not the easy option. But for the millions who can find no easy
answers to the most profound questions it is the only possible one.
