Russell: Why I am not a Christian - Editor's Introduction

(Originally written September 1, 2005 in Book 2)

Why I am not a Christian
Bertrand Russell
1957

Editor's Introduction (Paul Edwards)

-Some of Russell's best work is in his discussion of religion

-Russell is renowned in the fields of logic and the theory of knowledge

-Russell is also concerned with the questions religion intends to answer, and he answers them from a knowledgeable rationalist post.

-This book is published at an appropriate time because of the current revival of religion.

-Anybody that opposes rationalism is a BIGOT!
