One of the first works I read on freethought. It made a big impression on me, challenging things I had accepted most of my life, and led me to read more works on the topic. The author writes in a sharp, sassy style that brightens up a difficult and often dreary subject. (

Very interesting look at the Bible. At times funny, at times very disturbing. (

An essential read, in my opinion, for anyone looking for info on Christianity. Definitely a skewed viewpoint, but what would you expect, given the title. I'd give this a five, based on the info it provides, but it is poorly organized, many, many examples restated many times throughout the book. (

About the author: "Ruth Hurmence Green was born into a Methodist family. . .[She] graduated from Texas Tech University with a degree in journalism.. .[I]n 1975 [she] was diagnosed with throat cancer. It was during recovery from her first round of cancer treatments. . .that Ruth, 'a half-hearted Methodist' decided to read the Bible cover to cover. This project took two years and made her a confirmed atheist." About the book: quoting from the book's introduction, "'The Born Again Skeptic,' the first book published by the Foundation (The Freedom From Religion Foundation, Inc.), has remained continuously in print since 1979, and has been the Foundation's 'bestseller.' [The book] has proven itself to be simply invaluable to anyone engaging in debate with religionists over the merits of bible contents. I would venture to suggest the 'Born Again Skeptic' is primarily responsible for the fact that the freethought community today is far more bible-literate than the religious population at large!" This work is well indexed
