Description
The leading adviser on spirituality in America divulges the faulty reasoning, bogus science, and general bad faith prevalent among militant atheists like Richard Dawkins and Sam Harris, then offers new and provocative ways to understand God and the nature of belief in the 21st century.
For many, the rise in the new atheistic beliefs of Richard Dawkins and Sam Harris are a sign that God and faith are no longer needed in the modern world. Deepak Chopra disagrees and sees the rise in materialistic thinking as a grand opportunity for people of faith to reevaluate what they believe and why. In The Future of God, Chopra not only dispels the faulty arguments of a new breed of militant atheists but also shows us an inspiring and invigorating path to understanding God and our own place in the universe. "If faith can be saved, the result will be an increase in hope," Chopra writes. "By itself, faith can't deliver God, but it does something more timely. Faith makes God possible."
