具体描述
Why I Am Not a Christian is considered one of the most blasphemous philosophical documents ever written, and at a time when we have faith schools and wars over religious beliefs, its message today couldn't be more relevant. If religion provides comfortable responses to the questions that have always beset humankind - why are we here, what is the point of being alive, how ought we to behave - then Russell snatches that comfort away, leaving us instead with other, more troublesome alternatives: responsibility, autonomy, self-awareness. If it were possible to sum up this book in a sentence, then it would be that the time to live is now, the place to live is here, and the way to be happy is to ensure others are happy. And what it all boils down to, is that disbelief is but a matter of believing. Ranked alongside Voltaire's Candide, Tom Paine's Age of Reason, Martin Scorsese's The Last Temptation of Christ, and Monty Python's The Life of Brian, Bertrand Russell's Why I Am Not a Christian has made some odd bedfellows over the years. While its tone is playful and frivolous, it poses tough questions over the nature of religion and belief.

读后感
这本书是罗素对于基督教的书写的集合，书名来自于第一篇文章，是罗素做过的一个演讲。这一个演讲确实使人读了之后有种酣畅淋漓之感，仿佛宗教徒宣称的各种信心和见证，神秘主义的把戏，对“神圣权威”的玩弄和利用，迂腐愚昧的教条，在罗素鲜明有力的思想和语言的光照之下，完...
评分一直很喜欢罗素这个小老头。风趣幽默，一针见血。选择信仰宗教也许是一件更轻松的事情，但这个可爱又倔强的小老头就是要坚持自己的理性。这本书是和C.S. 路易斯的《返璞归真》对照读的，两本书同样讲到了神性，宗教的精神体验，以及宗教的作用和地位。相比起“传教士”的心灵鸡...
评分一個人如果要表示自己是基督教徒，最起碼的前提有：一是相信上帝永遠不朽，二是承認基督是最優秀、最有智慧的人。而并非人人都抱有這兩條信念。羅素先生相信基督的德行是非常高尚的，但還不足以稱是最優秀的。更詳細地說明，將會分成如下幾個方面進行。 第...

用户评价
几近放弃的一本书。所以但凡把宗教和逻辑扯到一起，事儿就只能越说越复杂越说越折磨人。对于我而言我还是认为超验的东西本身就不能靠与经验共存的逻辑去解释。罗素您老这本书还是没有解答我的人生困惑，虽然一如既往的语言精湛牛逼。
评分We ought to stand up and look the world frankly in the face. The world needs a fearless outlook and a free intelligence. It needs hope for the future, not looking back all the time toward a past that is dead.
