Eloquent writing that explains complicated ideas in simple to understand terms. For those rusty on their reading or intimidated by other works on this topic, this is an easy read. Is this book going to instantly deconvert a diehard Christian fundamentalist (or any theist)? No, probably not, but I don’t see that as Dawkins’ intention here. It’s for the people on the fence looking for someone to validate their doubts and bring them back to reality. It’s an amazing read for a brand new atheist/agnostic who’s still grappling with the trauma of losing their faith. It helped me find my footing once again, gave me to courage to leave it all behind, and the beautiful science explained near the end was truly awe-inspiring. It closed the emotional gap, and the power of knowledge leaves one more fulfilled than I could have ever been with faith.

I hope that everyone will read this book. It is the new Bible and Coran of the 21st century. I sent a message once that The God Delusion or whatever Dawkins, Harris and others wrote was too complicated in style and content to be read by everyone and an easy atheism book should be written. IT IS HERE FINALLY. This is the best book ever written.

Richard Dawkin’s „Outgrowing God“ is an excellent book for any religious person begining to have doubts. Born into a Mormon family, I grew up believing in God. I didn’t begin questioning my faith until I learned about other religions and evolution during a two year missionary service. Within a year of returing from my service, during which I studied many books about history, religion and evolution, I became an atheist; the evidence-based science and logic were relieving to my truth-seeking mind! Religion had only ever presented me with confusion. I’m sincerely appreciative of men like Richard Dawkins who make science and history available to all readers. After reading the entire book the day I purchased it, I’ve shared „Outgrowing God" with several family members and close friends. I have been delighted to see some of them accept it as gratefully as I did; I promise you will too!
