The Atheist’s Bible. Recommended reading for non-believers, about God and religion. To quote the great springfield poet Homer Simpson: "God bless those pagans."

In Portable Atheist Christopher Hitchens writes:

"One is continually told, as an unbeliever, that it is old-fashioned to rail against the primitive stupidities and cruelties of religion because after all, in these enlightened times, the old superstitions have died away."

Hitchens argues in God Is Not Great that belief in a great god will persist for as long as we humans cannot come to grips with our own mortality. He states that it is time for science and reason to play a bigger role in our cultures.

Sam Harris agrees about the role of science in our lives. In The Moral Landscape  Harris seeks to link morality to the rest of human knowledge, that science ought to define human well-being.
