“Reasoned, cool and concise—a good-natured primer for infidels.” —Kirkus Reviews
“[Paulos] is as sure-footed as a tiger as he prowls through the theocratic landscape, pouncing on sloppy thinking. To a large extent he succeeds in demolishing the arguments of believers.” —Phillip Manning, The News & Observer (Raleigh)
“[Paulos] knocks the props from under the classic arguments for the existence of God . . . The book is written with a charming skepticism that is not off-putting or arrogant.” —Chuck Warnock, Amicus Dei blog
“Few of the recent books on atheism have been worth reading just for wit and style, but this is one of them: Paulos is truly funny.” —Publishers Weekly
“Irreligion will, I’m confident, take a distinguished place in what one might call the canonical literature of the New Atheism.” —Norman Levitt, eSkeptic
