Merciful? Just? Compassionate? In fact, the Bible lays out God's primary qualities clearly: jealous, petty, unforgiving, bloodthirsty, vindictive--and worse! Originally conceived as a joint presentation between influential thinker and bestselling author Richard Dawkins and former evangelical preacher Dan Barker, this unique book provides an investigation into what may be the most unpleasant character in all fiction. Barker combs through both the Old and New Testament (as well as 13 different editions of the \"Good Book\"), presenting powerful evidence for why the Scripture shouldn't govern our everyday lives. This witty, well-researched book suggests that we should move past the Bible and clear a path to a kinder and more thoughtful world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"sb-details\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublished:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sterling Publishing Company, Incorporated\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9781454930105\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Sterling Publishing Company, Incorporated","offers":[{"title":"Standard Secondhand — £10.40","offer_id":47915941593265,"sku":"SB-1454930101-C3","price":10.4,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0618\/2669\/5345\/files\/1454930101.jpg?v=1789259934","url":"https:\/\/sellbooks.co.uk\/products\/god-the-most-unpleasant-character-in-all-fiction","provider":"Sell Books .co.uk","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
