Atheists Talk: Alex Rosenberg on “The Atheists Guide to Reality”

Many religions claim to hold the answers to life’s big questions: What is the meaning of life? Why are we here? From where do we get our morals? Some say it’s all because of God, and that leaves us atheists throwing our hands in the air.

But now Alex Rosenberg has written a book just for us. In The Atheist’s Guide to Reality: Enjoying Life Without Illusions, Dr. Rosenberg walks us through the science that succeeds in providing these answers without having to fall back on supernatural explanations. He celebrates scientism, embraces “nice nihilism,” and takes us on a fast-paced, wild journey through the physics, chemistry, and biology that explain our past, present, and future. He shows how science influences our politics, ethics, and how we think about ourselves and the world around us.

Dr. Alexander Rosenberg is the R. Taylor Cole Professor of Philosophy at Duke University, and the co-director of Duke’s Center for the Philosophy of Biology. His areas of interest include metaphysics, David Hume and causation, and the philosophy of economics, biology, and cognitive and behavioral science. He is a prolific author, with thirteen published books, contributions in two anthologies of philosophy and approximately 180 journal articles spanning from 1972 to the present.

    So klagen viele Frauen extra Verspannungen in dem Schultergürtel-Bereich, einschneidende BH-Träger ansonsten Schwitz- ebenso Ekzemneigung rein den Haut-auf-Haut Partien der Unterbrust.
