Über dieses E-Book

Originally written as a response to a Creationist defence of Biblical morality, 'The Best Religion For The Task At Hand' discusses how the morality dictated in the Bible does not provide the best moral foundation for society, how Fundamentalist apologetics whitewashes and overlooks the human rights abuses both contained in the Bible and perpetrated by Christians throughout history, and discusses how Humanism provides the most logical and ethical foundation for a society due to the fact that it focuses solely on improving human well-being.


A thought-provoking read that seeks to challenge long-held preconceptions of the Bible by questioning the moral precepts contained therein, and promoting a morality that uses reason and data as its tools to promote well-being.
