The Atheist Who Didn't Exist exposes some of the loose threads on the cardigan of atheism, and tugs a little to see what will happen. Addressing some of the more popular atheist sound bites about the Christian faith, Andy Bannister clears the space for a deeper and more honest discussion about the big questions of life. Our culture now assumes that atheism is the default position - indeed, the only position for anyone who wishes to be seen to be educated, contemporary and urbane. In the media, atheism is usually portrayed as scientific and rational versus religion, which is seen as stuffy, outmoded and irrational. Blending humor with serious thought, The Atheist Who Didn't Exist will help anybody who has encountered some of the popular claims of atheism to think a little deeper. Whether the reader is a Christian who desires to be able to start a conversation with secular friends, or simply an agnostic dissatisfied with some of the arguments that pass for serious thought, Andy Banister shows that when it comes to the most important questions of life, we need to move beyond simplistic sound bites.
