Do You Need God? – Exploring different paths to spirituality even for atheists

Do You Need God? explores the similarities of religious and secular moral systems and the great deal which they have in common and asks whether aggressive secularists seek to divert our attention from that. With no bias, no axe to grind, no mercy, the book tells you what you need to know about world religions and atheism, including what their followers might prefer not to talk about. The author burrows underneath conventional approaches to religion, to find the real thing, to get to see how believers see their spirituality.

About the author

Rory J.Q. Barnes is a retired solicitor with a lifelong passion for comparative religion. His preoccupation with the subject is a bit strange, since he has few beliefs and belongs to no organized religion. He says it is that lack of any bias combined with a driving curiosity which has made him approach an old subject from a new angle. He lives in Sussex, UK.
