Written for non-scholars, to explain Skepticism to friends, family members and others who would probably never read anything which might cause them to examine their worldviews. Data from studies done by the Pew Research Center, relevant scientific evidence, and the views of many scholars, both religious and secular, are cited to support the authors position. Over 350 questions are offered for readers who are willing to think about what they believe and why?The primary issues addressed are (1) that most Believers accept the religion of their families without questioning the reason or logic to support the beliefs associated with it, (2) that churches would contribute more to society if they abandoned the unjustifiable beliefs and guidance provided by charismatic leaders and/or holy books that make in-consistent and self-contradictory proclamations which lack supportive evidence and are contrary to common sense, and (3) the claim that the U.S. was founded on Judeo-Christian concepts is false and that the imposition of religion on governmental decisions has always been and continues to be harmful to society. Chapters include The Holy Bible Christianityâ€™s Problem, Unjustifiable Unhelpful and Harmful Religious Concepts, A Skeptical WorldviewAppendices include Contrarian Comments Questions and Quotations, Lists of Scandals of the Clergy, Clerics Who Have Abandoned Their Faith, Noteworthy Skeptics, Groups and Resources for the Inquiring Mind, and a Hierarchy of Belief Systems as They Affect Individuals and Society.
