It posits that there are no deities, and that the existence of all things can be explained rationally and without the presence of a higher power.

A new group of Americans is challenging the reign of the Religious Right. Today, nearly one in five Americans are nonbelievers - a rapidly growing group at a time when traditional Christian churches are dwindling in numbers - and they are flexing their muscles like never before. Yet we still see almost none of them openly serving in elected office, while Mitt Romney, Rick Santorum, and many others continue to loudly proclaim the myth of America as a Christian nation.

Über Gott reden ja viele, wenngleich die meisten nur glauben, etwas über den Allmächtigen zu wissen. Und die, die etwas zu wissen glauben, Religionswissenschaftler, behaupten, Naturwissenschaftler könnten über Gott sowieso nichts sagen. Die drei Autoren dieses Hörbuchs treten den Gegenbeweis an: der Astrophysiker Harald Lesch, der an der Hochschule der Jesuiten Philosophie unterrichtet, der Psychiater Manfred Spitzer, dem Wahnvorstellungen nicht fremd sind, und der Intellektuellste unter den Kabarettisten, Günther "Gunkl" Paal.

From colonial times into the 20th century, our laws and court cases ignored atheism, assuming that all good Americans were religious. Only in the 20th century, with the passage of laws allowing for conscientious objection to war, did nonbelief enter debates about religious liberty. Still, today every one of the 20 states has God written into its constitution. God is everywhere in American public life. R. Laurence Moore and Isaac Kramnick explore both God's omnipresence and the dramatic rise in nonbelievers that has led to an "atheist awakening" intent on holding the country to its secular principles.

The deepest riddle of Christianity is only this: How could anyone possibly believe it? In answer to this question, The Convert tells the true story of one man's punishing journey across the extremes of human experience, through fire and heartbreak, passion and betrayal, prison and madness, to the very brink of belief. This is the story of one man and one moment - the moment of God's triumph or sanity's defeat.
