The rise of what has been called The New Atheism has forced Christians and others to reassess their belief in, their understanding of, and their response to God. In this series of sermons, preached over a twenty-year period, Rev. Bill Darlison considers some of the problems associated with God. He asks whether belief is just wishful thinking; whether (as Marx declared) Darwin hammered the last nail in God s coffin; and whether (as the Buddha taught) the question of God is a distraction from more important spiritual matters. Readings and stories which accompany some of the sermons are given in an appendix, and each section of the book is followed by questions intended to aid individual reflection or group discussion. The Rev Bill Darlison is Minister Emeritus of Dublin Unitarian Church and lives in retirement in Yorkshire. He is the author of several books on spiritual matters.
