Dan Barker, currently Public Relations Director of the Freedom From Religion Foundation Inc. is a frequent advocate of freethinking on the lecture and talkshow circuit. In this book he explores the fallacies, inconsistencies and harms of Christian dogma and doctrine. He replaces these with an impassioned invocation of freethought, reason and humanism. His book records his own dramatic journey that led him from being a 'soul-winner' to becoming one of America's most prominent freethinkers. This journey began when he was 15 years old, and spanned 19 years. It included missionary work, becoming an ordained minister and a touring evangelist, and being a Christian songwriter and performer. In this book he explains why he left the ministry.
