Luul Jumalast
Blurb
"Luul Jumalast" on Richard Dawkinsi anti-teistlik raamat. Raamat avaldati esmakordselt 2006. aastal kõvade kaantega, kuid tänu suurele populaarusele anti 2007. aastal välja raamatu teine trükk. Teine trükk on pehmete kaantega ja sisaldab lisamaterjali, mille Dawkins kirjutas vastukajana kriitikutele.Dawkins väidab, et usk üleloomulikku loojasse on luul, mida ta defineerib kui kangekaelset valeusku vaatamata kaalukatele vastukäivatele tõenditele. Ta jagab Robert Pirsingi arvamust: "Kui üks inimene kannatab luulu all, on tegemist hullumeelsusega. Kui palju inimesi kannatab luulude all, on tegemist religiooniga" "The God Delusion" oli 2006. aastal nii Amazon.comi bestsellerite kui ka New York Timesi bestsellerite hulgas.

The only chapter I read was when he tried to disprove Thomas Aquinas' Five Proofs for God, and at first I thought there were some good points, but there were still issues that I found unconvincing, such as ruling out the perfect moral source based on variations of right and wrong should also mean there is a perfect smell because of variations of smell, since we tolerate bad smells, like a man passing gas on a plane or some sort of chemical leak, but we don't tolerate shoplifting or rape. Later I read a critique of this chapter by a man who specialized in the Summa Theologica, and it seems that Dawkins didn't do his homework. It would be as if I looked at an argument from On the Origin of Species, wrote a critique of it and said "therefore this disproves evolution." Oh, I have a hunch that I'd face a great deal of criticism from everyone in the biology field if I did that. So why is it that Dawkins can do the same in regards to philosophy and theology? As my brother described him: Good biologist, dick of a human being.
