Like Rolling Uphill

"Like Rolling Uphill - Realising the Honesty of Atheism" by Dianna Narciso, is an effort to address the questions and misconceptions of believers, Dianna offers her perception of religion as from the outside looking in.

If you ever wanted to know what makes an Atheist tick, this book will offer you fascinating insight.

When Atheists dare to come out of hiding, they are sometimes surprised by the reactions they receive. From accusations of immorality, to nonsensical questions about evolution, believers are apparently threatened by our lack of belief. There may be good reason for that feeling. after all, we represent the possibility that they may be wrong.

The tone throughout the book is not of someone attacking religion, but of someone who is defending a position against the misconceptions of religionists. That always makes this kind of work more accessible.
