This book is dedicated to my parents, Dave and Carol McGowan, who raised me to be curious about the real world and never told me there was a thought I coundn't think.

A Friend who heard I was writing Atheism for Dummies said it would be the skinniest book on the shelf. "Just one sentence long," he said. "'Atheists are people who don't believe in God.'" Part I Understanding What Atheism Is

But through the centuries, some people have always doubted the God conclusion—and some have even come to the firm conviction that humans created God, not the other way around. | |
