While A C Grayling is a clear critic of religion as a guiding force, unlike some of religion's opponents, he carefully considers the various arguments for the existence of God and the many reasons people believe in a deity. More important, he then offers a powerful alternative to religion as a worldview - humanism - an approach to life for those who wish to live with intellectual integrity, based on reason, evidence, and a desire to do and be good, and one which does not interfere with people's rights to their own beliefs and freedom of expression.
Humanism, as Grayling reveals it, is an ethics of sympathy and tolerance based on the best endeavour to make sense of human nature and the human condition.
