Eldaerenth reviewed The Atheist's Guide to Christmas by Robin Harvie
Review of "The Atheist's Guide to Christmas" on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
A wonderful collection of essays from some of the best known freethinkers, atheists, humanists, and other -ists alive today. Contributors include comedians, scientists, broadcasters, journalists, podcasters, bloggers and educators. All edited by the lady who came up with the idea for the Atheist Bus Campaign to begin with, Ariane Sherine.
Despite what many, who have not read it, may have you believe, this book is not cover-to-cover anti-theism, God-bashing and miserable Scroogeyness. The vast majority of the writers talk about how much they enjoy Christmas, and normally for the same reasons.
Why a collection of 42 essays? Think about it for a minute, Mr Dent. (An homage to another brilliant mind who is, sadly, no longer with us).
