Good Without God

What a Billion Nonreligious People Do Believe
Book • 2010
In 'Good Without God,' Greg Epstein provides a world view for nonbelievers that emphasizes tolerance, community, morality, and goodness without the need for a higher being.

The book is a response to the hostile and intolerant views of religion presented by authors like Christopher Hitchens, Sam Harris, and Richard Dawkins.

Epstein argues that humans can be good and live meaningful lives through Humanism, which includes building communities that meet the same needs as traditional religious communities, such as culture, literature, rituals, counseling, and community service.

He also discusses the importance of art, nature, and personal connections in providing a sense of sacredness and fulfillment for nonbelievers.
