Written by Paul C. Vitz

Published bySpence Publishing 2009, paperback, 147 pages.

Modern atheism originated in the irrational, psychological needs of a few prominent thinkers. Subjecting the apostles of atheism to the same psychological analysis with which they attempted to debunk religious belief, Vitz reveals the source of a psychological predisposition to atheism — the absence of a good father. While psychology is not destiny, disappointment in one’s earthly father frequently leads to a rejection of God.
— Is atheism a mental disorder?
— Is faith a crutch?
— Who’s dead — God or Dad?
