God's Gravediggers

<p>Few can offer a more experienced view on religion than Ray Bradley. Having been raised as a 'winner of souls for Christ' in the 1940s he spent the next 40 years as an atheist professor of philosophy and an outspoken critic /debater of religion.<br /><br />Revered for his work in logic and his meticulous approach to debate God's Gravediggers is Bradley's coup de grâce to religion. A career's worth of work on a subject that could hardly be more important. Approaching the moral logical and scientific arguments - using rich analogies rational arguments and examples that non-academics would understand - he explores not only whether God exists but also what damage the concept of God does. A timely book in an age of religious fundamentalism hatred and conflict.<br /><br />Bradley does not gloss over difficult points of logic and reasoning. A pleasure to read.<br />Professor Graham Oppy Chair of Council of the Australasian Association of Philosophy<br /><br />From a young person's rejection of Christianity to a mature philosopher's cogent critique of all religions. This compelling defense of atheism is a brilliant read.<br />Professor Robert Nola University of Auckland.<br /><br />Bradley's forte is logic and he brings that to bear throughout the work. It is well-written and thoroughly absorbing. I have nothing but praise for his project.<br />Theodore Drange Professor Emeritus West Virginia University</p>
