God Is Not Great: How Religion Poisons Everything

Christopher Hitchens' "God Is Not Great: How Religion Poisons Everything" — an executable polemic toolkit for understanding and deploying the four irreducible objections to religious faith, examining the historical record of religious violence and sexual repression, exposing the falsehood of scripture, and arguing for reason, free inquiry, and a secular ethical life. Covers 7 use cases: ① The Four Objections — the core case ("What are the irreducible arguments against religion?") ② Religion and Violence — the historical record ("Does religion cause violence?") ③ Scripture as Literature — the critical reading ("How should we read the Bible and Koran?") ④ Religion and Health — the physical cost ("Is religion bad for your health?") ⑤ Religion and Sexuality — the repression ("How has religion damaged sexual health?") ⑥ Religion and Children — the abuse question ("Is labeling children with religion a form of abuse?") ⑦ The Secular Alternative — ethics without faith ("How can we be good without God?")
