The Little Book of Atheist Spirituality

A brilliant, elegant argument for spirituality without God
Can we do without religion? Can we have ethics without God? Is there such thing as “atheist spiritualityâ€? In this powerful book, the internationally bestselling author André Comte-Sponville presents a philosophical exploration of atheismâ€"and comes to some startling conclusions. According to Comte-Sponville, we have allowed the concept of spirituality to become intertwined with religion, and thus have lost touch with the nature of a true spiritual existence. In order to change this, however, we need not reject the ancient traditions and values that are part of our heritage; rather, we must rethink our relationship to these values and ask ourselves whether their significance comes from the existence of a higher power or simply the human need to connect to one another and the universe. Comte-Sponville offers rigorous, reasoned arguments that take both Eastern and Western philosophical traditions into account, and through his clear, concise, and often humorous prose, he offers a convincing treatise on a new form of spiritual life.
