The God Delusion" caused a sensation when it was published in 2006. Within weeks it became the most hotly debated topic with Dawkins himself branded as either saint or sinner for presenting his hard-hitting impassioned rebuttal of religion of all types. His argument could hardly be more topical. While Europe is becoming increasingly secularized the rise of religious fundamentalism whether in the Middle East or Middle America is dramatically & dangerously dividing opinion around the world. In America & elsewhere a vigorous dispute between 'intelligent design' & Darwinism is seriously undermining & restricting the teaching of science. In many countries religious dogma from medieval times still serves to abuse basic human rights such as women's & gay rights. & all from a belief in a God whose existence lacks evidence of any kind.
